Relies entirely on primary sources, no claimed notability independent of the university, seems intended just to advertise the degrees offered  Jimfbleak -  talk to me?  06:56, 17 February 2014 (UTC)

 * Delete. Schools, faculties and departments of larger institutions usually have to be very notable to have their own articles. This one doesn't appear to be. -- Necrothesp (talk) 14:47, 17 February 2014 (UTC)
 * Keep. All other graduate schools of the University of Pennsylvania (many of less prestige than the school in question) have similarly written articles. Furthermore, as one of the leading Social Work schools (citation added), this school is particularly relevant and worthy of being the subject of an article. Other secondary sources have been added to improve the quality of the article. The section on degrees was removed to increase the perceived neutrality of the article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by JimBrown42 (talk • contribs) 18:30, 17 February 2014 (UTC)
 * Keep. Seems to meet the basic threshold of notability for a constituent college of a larger university. As User:JimBrown42 notes, it's a top-ranked school in its field. Esrever (klaT) 23:26, 17 February 2014 (UTC)

 * Keep We normally do keep articles about major graduate schools of a major university, such as this one. There';'s almost always enough material, and they're sufficiently important.  DGG ( talk ) 18:19, 10 March 2014 (UTC)
