A University of Pennsylvania student died inside her apartment overnight.

Philadelphia Police investigated the apparent suicide inside a row home on the 4000 block of Sansom Street in University City.

Investigators said that they found a female student, later identified as Amanda Hu, dead in her bedroom late Sunday night. Hu, a native of a North Caronlina, left a note at the scene, according to police.

They spent the early hours of Monday going in and out of the off-campus home. The university said there were no signs of foul play.

"The Division of Public Safety, the Office of the Vice Provost for University Life and the Chaplain’s Office are assisting members of the Penn community who may be affected by this loss," said Penn media relations director Ron Ozio.

Hu took a voluntary leave of absence this semester and was working in a biochemistry lab, according to the university.

The apparent suicide is the latest involving a University of Pennsylvania student -- late last school year the UPenn community came together for a rally to raise awareness of mental health issues with college students. The university also expanded its counseling center outreach and expanded counseling hours, according to Ozio.
