University of Pennsylvania (UPenn), Ivy League

The University of Pennsylvania also known as UPenn is a private Ivy League research university in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. In this blog post, I will refer to the University of Pennsylvania as UPenn. The average cost before aid is $57,770 the average cost after aid is $24,000. UPenn's graduation rate is 95%, and its acceptance rate is 9%.

UPenn is particularly well known for its medical school, dental school, design school, business school, law school, engineering school, communications school, nursing school, veterinary school, it's social sciences and humanities programs, as well as its biomedical teaching and research capabilities. UPenn's highly ranked graduate programs include its Wharton School, School of Education, School of Engineering and Applied Science, Law School and School of Medicine. Penn's other notable graduate programs include its School of Design and School of Dental Medicine.

You will need exceptionally good grades to get into UPenn, the average high school GPA of the admitted freshman class at UPenn was 3.9 on the 4.0 scale indicating that you would need exceptionally good grades. The 25th percentile New SAT score is 1440 and the 75th percentile SAT score is 1560. In other words, a 1440 places you below average while a 1560 will move you up to above average. An earlier report listed six universities from Pennsylvania in the top 100 nationally, Pennsylvania is ranked at 50 in the higher education category. The category considers things like two-year college graduation rates, four-year graduation rates, debt, and tuition and fees.

According to many reports, Cornell, Dartmouth, and UPenn are by far the easiest Ivy Leagues to get into. And Harvard, Yale, and Princeton are 3 of the hardest Ivy Leagues to get into. What makes UPenn unique? Penn's campus is really awesome, it has its own character, and everything you would need, but it is also a great city.
