Hey everyone! I'm really interested in studying engineering in college, and I've heard great things about UPenn. Does anyone know the most recent ranking for the University of Pennsylvania's engineering program? I'm trying to narrow down my list, so any info is helpful!

Hey there! It's true that the University of Pennsylvania has a strong engineering program. As of the U.S. News & World Report 2022 rankings for engineering schools, UPenn's School of Engineering and Applied Science is ranked #21 among undergraduate engineering programs in the United States.

While rankings can provide useful information, it's important to remember that they don't tell the whole story about how well a school's program might suit you personally. It's worth looking into the specific engineering programs offered at UPenn to get a better idea of what they excel at, as individual departments may be ranked even higher.

In addition to ranking and program offerings, consider factors such as class size, research opportunities, hands-on experiences, and the school's location. Visiting the campus, attending information sessions, and connecting with current students or professors can also help you get a better sense of whether UPenn's engineering program is the right fit for you, and whether the school as a whole is the right fit for you personally and socially, as well as academically.
