Quick question for y'all - what's the application fee for the University of Pennsylvania? Is there any way I can apply for a waiver if needed? Any info would be helpful, thanks!
The application fee for the University of Pennsylvania (UPenn) is $75. If you're concerned about the cost, you'll be glad to know that UPenn, like many other colleges, offers fee waivers for students who demonstrate financial need. If you qualify for a fee waiver, your application fee will be waived, and you won't have to pay anything.
To apply for a waiver, you can go through one of the following ways:
1. Common Application: When you're filling out the Common App, you'll have the option to request a fee waiver directly in the application. This request will be based on the information you provide about your family's financial situation. If your fee waiver request is approved, you won't need to pay the application fee for UPenn or any other colleges you apply to through the Common App.
2. Coalition Application: Like the Common App, the Coalition App also offers a fee waiver request option. If you're using the Coalition Application for UPenn, you can request a fee waiver within the application itself.
3. School counselor: You can also request a fee waiver by speaking with your school counselor. They can provide you with the necessary forms and help you submit your waiver request.
Remember to check the eligibility criteria for the fee waiver and ensure that your request is submitted before the application deadline. If you have any questions about the waiver, it's a good idea to reach out to the UPenn Admissions Office for assistance.
