Overview of Penn's Salary Structure

The University of Pennsylvania employs over 10,000 individuals who perform jobs that require a wide range of knowledge, skills, and abilities, from accountants to veterinary technicians. Penn’s salary structures were designed with these differences in mind. All new hires at Penn must be paid at least the minimum of the salary grade. Most salary offers for new hires fall between the minimum and top of first third of the salary range. Because Penn is committed to remaining competitive in the marketplace, salary offers above the top of the first third may occur if the candidate has a unique combination of education, experience, and skills that well-exceed the minimum qualifications. Factors, such as the budget and market issues are also considered when setting a salary for a new hire.

Note: University staff who are unionized are covered by the relevant terms and conditions of the respective collective bargaining agreement.
