3+2 financial aid for international students

I’m attending a small LAC in PA with a 3+2 program and i really hate it and it is only worth staying if i can afford 3+2 at either Columbia, Wash u stl or Case Western. If any of you know anything about how much money they offer to internationals please let me know.

It depends on the student, and the decision is made as part of being accepted into the +2 part. None of them promise to meet 100% of need.

Agree with the above. Columbia says this on their website about 3+2 fin aid (note the 4th point wrt internationals)

FA is generally higher at Columbia than WUSTL and CWRU, so I would expect little if any aid from WUSTL and CWRU as well.

As an international student who needs FA, it probably doesn’t make sense to add a 5th year of study. What don’t you like about your current situation?

The international students office at your LAC might be able to give you a hand with verifying the potential for aid packages for the +2 years. Go sit down with them and get some advice for your specific situation.
