The University of Pennsylvania (UPenn) offers a variety of scholarship options to support students financially. These include need-based aid, merit-based scholarships, and specialized awards.
Need-based scholarships, like the Penn Grant, are determined by family financial circumstances. Merit-based scholarships, such as the Dean’s Scholarship, recognize academic excellence. Specialized programs like the Benjamin Franklin Scholars Program cater to students with interdisciplinary interests.
External scholarships, including the QuestBridge National College Match, are also available. Students should complete the FAFSA and CSS Profile to apply for need-based aid. UPenn’s financial aid office provides personalized guidance to help applicants navigate their options.
