Nursing is about 25-30% RD.

It’s not that high. For the Class of 2014, the overall acceptance rate for the Nursing School was 20%, and the RD rate would have been even lower:</p>

<p>The Nursing School continues its trend of selectivity.</p>

<p>Nursing admissions decisions were sent out to the class of 2014 Friday. Approximately 20-percent of the nearly 500 applicants were accepted, according to Dean of Admissions Eric Furda.</p>

<p>Applications have increased 26-percent since last year.</p>

<p>As with Penn’s other undergraduate schools, the Nursing class of 2014 will be the most selective ever, Furda explained.</p>

<p>Unlike other applicants, however, nursing students do not have to wait until April 1st to find out whether or not they have been accepted.</p>

<p>Penn notifies the Nursing applicants of their admission status over a month before College, Engineering and Wharton applicants because other nursing schools send decisions in late February.</p>

<p>“We don’t want to be at a competitive disadvantage,” Furda explained.
