Penn Scholarship Conditions - need to know ASAP! Forum

[Gemini198]

Hi everyone,

Need to know if there are any conditions/requirements for Penn's Dean's fellow merit scholarship. I was offered a 15k/year scholarship, and need to send in a deposit for another school by tomorrow morning. I'm considering rejecting the other school, but don't want to if Penn has some ridiculous GPA requirement on their scholarship. I've heard of schools having that, and then students losing their merit aid because they fell below the minimum requirement.

Cant find any information on this on my scholarship letter, the admitted students website, or anywhere else online. Anyone with info, please help!

If you are referring to UPenn, then I am pretty sure there are no stipulations. I do not know of any T14 that has GPA requirements attached to scholarship money. Pretty sure only good standing as a full-time student is necessary. HTH.

Yes, I'm referring to UPenn, thanks so much! If anyone else could confirm this, would really appreciate it.
