Do scholarships go to work study?

Hi,

I have been accepted early decision to UPenn and have definitely received enough aid to go since my family is low-income (all in grants, no loans), but I’ve been given quite a bit of work-study every year. I’m a bit unclear as to where outside scholarships can go now – will they go towards the parental contribution, or the student work-study contribution? Or will they just be taken out of my grants?

Thanks so much!
