<p>I am an international applying for financial aid at Penn. From reading other threads I've gathered, that Penn sends out confirmation emails about having received the financial aid application. However I have not received any confirmation; I send in my financial aid application in early January(like 2nd or something).
Should I re-send everything? I'm just worried, because the deadline is approaching and I want to make sure that they have everything. I've already sent an email to the financial aid office, but so far no reply. Should I wait or just re-send everything? What would happen if they didn't receive my financial aid application?</p>
<p>They will probably accept you without FA ;)</p>
<p>And then what? I would be asked to resend my financial aid stuff? </p>
<p>I'm just nervous about it, that's all. And I don't want to be rejected based on a missing financial aid application.</p>
<p>nevermind, just got a confirmation email.</p>
<p>I am an international too, but haven't submitted the application yet. Do we just need to submit the collegeboard international financial aid form along with tax returns? Can i send it via fax?</p>
<p>I sent collegeboard's financial aid application and certification of finances(I think Penn wants both) along with statements of my mom's employer and my bank. I mailed it though.
I think it can be done by fax, but be sure to attach a cover letter with name, birth date etc.</p>

<p>I think it's the other way around. Your chances of acceptance improves without financial aid application for internationals.</p>
<p>^ true.
But I wouldn't be awarded any financial aid if I hadn't submitted it on time, and a acceptance to Penn would be pretty worthless if I couldn't attend anyway.</p>
<p>I thought Penn was need blind for internationals?</p>
<p>nope, that applies only to Canadians and Mexicans...</p>
<p>You have much,much bigger chance of getting in without FA,especially during this financial crisis.
@_Silence,
do you think HOffenheim will win the title :):)</p>
<p>but Man Utd will win Quadruple this season...</p>
<p>I know, still no point in being accepted if I couldn't attend. </p>
<p>Do you mean Bundesliga? They might. I keep my finger's crossed for Hamburg though.</p>
