According to Penn’s website ([Financial Aid at Penn - Penn Admissions](Costs & Financial Aid | Penn Admissions)), 99% of applicants with income <$70,000 are offered aid, with $56,425 being the median award. At your income level, you will very likely receive a large financial aid package. I’d say there’s a good chance you can go for free or very close to free. Best of all, Penn only awards grants that you don’t have to pay back as opposed to loans. I would use Penn’s Net Price Calculator or even contact their Financial Aid department to get a good estimate of what kind of aid you would be receiving before committing to apply ED.
