<p>Hi all,</p>

<p>I was just wondering if anyone could shine some light on just how generous Penn's financial aid is for a transfer student. I am looking to transfer to Penn after my freshman year at URichmond.</p>

<p>Just for a little background, my family's income (parents married) should be around 120K for next year. We made significantly more than this last year (mom received severance pay when switching jobs), yet Richmond still gave me 24K in grant money.</p>

<p>Will Penn be able to match 24K? My guess is not, but anyone with any insight or experiences is encouraged to respond.</p>

<p>Thank you</p>

<p>I was also wondering whether you guys think that I should submit my ACT score (33: 35 English, 34 Math, 34 Reading, 30 Science, 8 Essay).</p>

<p>On the SAT (which I took twice) I scored:
First attempt: 790 Math, 740 CR, 710 Writing
Second Attempt: 770 Math, 760 CR, 690 Writing</p>

<p>I thought I’d definitely submit both SAT attempts because I raised my CR score by 20 points (seems more significant b/c it bumped me >750), and with score choice, 1550/2260 is pretty nice.</p>

<p>So what do you guys think? Submit ACT score or no?</p>
