I’m not familiar with UPenn’s policy, but as long as you get a decent GRE score (ie 700+ on math, 500+ on verbal) you should have no problem getting into Drexel’s MS program. It was my safety, but for some reason they never offered me funding. Perhaps you must accept their admission offer first to be considered for funding?

Your GPA is probably a bit less than average acceptee’s GPA at UPenn, which works against you. But in my opinion you will have a fair chance if you have strong recommendations and letter of purpose.

Why aren’t you considering staying at PSU for you masters? It’s ranked higher than UPenn.
