Though a majority of top universities in the US prefer students without backlogs, there are numerous
universities in the US accepting backlogs. So, you can be assured that upto 5 backlogs are accepted at
most US universities accepting backlogs. However, more than 5 backlogs are only accepted upon the
discretion of universities&rsquo; admission departments. Also, 15 is the maximum number of backlogs that has
been seen getting accepted by most US universities. 
There are a number of factors that determine how many backlogs are allowed for MS in USA, like: 
GPA 
Subjects with backlogs 
Time taken to clear backlogs
Backlog status 
The acceptance rate with a backlog for MS in the US, is similar to all other courses and programs. Many
universities in the US may accept upto 15 backlogs for MS, and if you have excellent GRE
or GMAT scores there are great chances for you to get accepted. 
The list of US universities accepting backlogs is:  
Kent State University 
Wright State University
Wichita State University
Pace University

You have a good-high GPA
You show an excellent background in terms of work experience, co-curricular, internships, LORs, etc
