Cohorts: Information for First-Year Students

All first-years belong to one of nine cohorts of students who share academic and social experiences.

You will take Wharton 1010 with your cohort in the fall semester. Throughout your first year, you will also have the opportunity to participate in a variety of fun cohort events, including the Amazing Cohort Race (a campus-wide scavenger hunt), Hauntsman Halloween, Winter Whartonland, and much more.

Cohort Executive Directors, Directors, and Mentors

Cohort executive directors, directors, and mentors provide support and help you get acclimated to life at Wharton. Each first-year cohort has one executive director and three directors who are upper-level students. You will also be automatically enrolled in the Cohort Mentorship Program (unless you choose not to participate). Your cohort mentor will be an upper-level student who can provide guidance on co-curricular life at Penn and Wharton.

Below is the list of cohorts and cohort leaders’ names. In July, you will learn more about your cohort and your cohort leaders will connect with you to welcome you to Penn and Wharton and answer any questions you might have.
