Hi everyone, I’m an admitted Penn 2016er but I’ve been classified as ineligible for financial aid. Despite this, my parents are unwilling to shell out the full cost of my education and as a Canadian, it seems incredibly difficult to get student loans to study outside of Canada (I will still try). Does anybody have any advice or a way out of this situation? Will I still be able to work at Penn without being offered financial aid (I understand most of the work-study programs are combined with financial aid offers)? What should I do?
