MS degree vs phD degree

Recommended Posts

Hi, i've heard that it's much easier to be accepted to a MS program than a pHD program.

Is this true?

If so, how hard is it to be accepted into a MS program for prestigious schools such as Stanford, MIT for biological engineering.

Thanks!

Yes, I've also heard that acceptance rates are higher for master's programs.  It makes sense, since PhD candidates will usually have full funding (not the case with MS students).  Unfortunately, I've never seen admissions data for masters programs posted.
