<p>I got $4,000 a year from a National Merit Scholarship and that's about it (the rest of my help is coming from Financial Aid).</p>
<p>However, I turned down non-FA 4-year merit scholarship offers ranging from 44k to 100k+ at four other colleges (some full rides).</p>
<p>Thank goodness for the FA provided by Penn (and for my parents' willingness to pay the entire parental contribution, meaning I'll be debt free upon UG graduation/grad school entry).</p>
