    This college has met my financial needs to a 'T' which was my biggest fear when applying to this college. If you are accepted they will work with you to find a way for you to afford it. This, in my book, is the most important thing to receive from a school.

    The University of Pennsylvania has a great financial aid package for undergraduates that allows qualifying students to avoid taking out student loans. There is lots of academic and social support for students, including help with stress and mental and physical well-being. The school's website also has a great online portal for students that is easy to use and allows you to take care of a lot of things on your own, such as financial aid documents and class registration, as well as finding work-study jobs.

    The University of Pennsylvania is a top tier institution that not only emphasizes the acquisition of knowledge but also its application to solve global problems. Known as the Civic Ivy, Penn encourages students to engage in community service, whether through participation in community service organizations or through Academically Based Community Service (ABCS) courses. It is an environment where intellectual curiosity thrives because that is a trait shared by all students.

    University of Pennsylvania is an excellent place to go to school. The academics are second to none, there is some sort of social activity for everyone, and the campus is beautiful. Nestled in University City, Penn offers all the resources of Philadelphia with a secluded, college campus feel.

    Penn is a fantastic school if you are a student that loves academics and is willing to work hard, but also is looking for a great social experience. University of Pennsylvania has an outlet for any interest (no matter how strange). It is a great location and environment to be in.

    This school is full of resources and opportunities for whatever you may be interested in. There is a lot of diversity and a strong sense of community even though it is a large school. Its location in Philadelphia is ideal because you are able to experience everything that Penn and the city have to offer.
