UPenn Scholarships
The Stephen and Maria A. CuUnjieng Scholarship and the Lhuillier-Hess Scholarship was established in 2015 to provide aid with a specific preference for students from the Philippines or of Filipino heritage.
"[These scholarships were established] to provide financial support to undergraduate[s] in the Wharton School who may not otherwise be able to meet the cost of a Penn education and to support the University's educational policy of promoting student body diversity. Each scholarship applicant's qualifications shall be considered individually... The Donors desire [that] students be considered according to the following order of preferences...:
- Students from the Philippines;
- Students from the United States of Filipino descent;
- Students from Southeast Asia;
- Students from Asia, excluding Hong Kong and Singapore;
- Any undergraduate student at Penn.

"These scholarships are provided through direct gifts to the University and privately endowed funds established by alumni and friends. Named scholarships enable Penn to continue its two-fold commitment to admit students solely on the basis of academic merit, and to meet 100% of a student's financial need. All scholarships are need-based, so students must complete the financial aid process. Student Financial Services selects recipients based on the scholarship's criteria; no separate application is necessary."
