i don't hesitate to shit on Penn kids, but to be fair UPenn does have a policy for offering up to 100% financial aid packages based on need for candidates that meet the guidelines. Essentially Penn can be almost free for those that come from the "bottom" income-wise.

Penn has always been more expensive than Drexel, they're both up there though.

Sounds like that’s basically a volunteer program which is different than a center for public policy which is essentially a think tank
