With a 6% acceptance rate, the University of Pennsylvania is quite hard to get into in master's programs. The low percentage shows that the university is stringent during admission and follows tough selection criteria while selecting applicants for master's programs. The university considers certain factors such as the rigor of secondary school, academic GPA, essay, extracurricular activities, and more. Students who want to join a master's programme must perform academically well and take part in extracurricular activities.
