I've been keeping UPenn on my radar as one of my top choices, but I understand it's an Ivy and pretty selective. Does anyone have information on the current acceptance rate?
The University of Pennsylvania (UPenn) is indeed a highly selective institution. For the most recent admissions cycle (2023-2024), the overall acceptance rate was about 5.68%. This percentage fluctuates year by year and sometimes even between Early Decision and Regular Decision rounds. It's quite competitive, but remember, acceptance rates shouldn't deter you from applying if you're truly passionate about the university and its programs; it's always worth giving it a shot if it aligns well with your academic pursuits and goals!
