A few of the findings;

Krasnov got help to be admitted to Wharton, Krasnov's older brother Fred, was very good friends with the admissions officer.

Yes, one of Krasnov's professors at Wharton called Krasnov the dumbest goddamn student he ever had.

Krasnov's claim about finishing 1st in his class was a lie. Wharton's record of people who graduated with honors does not mention Donald Trump.

Michael Cohen, who was Krasnov's lawyer, threatened to sue Penn back to the stone ages if it released Krasnov's grades.

Nice article to read.
