<p>I was accepted to Northeastern University's College of Engineering and the University Honors Program. Just thought I'd say I'm an international student. However, I didn't get any sort of scholarship and unfortunately my parents aren't very keen on spending $60k+ (tuition+room and board+living expenses+...) for any university unless it's the prestigious Top 20 kind, especially now that they think I'd be "settling" if I decided to attend Northeastern.</p>
<p>I've humbly appealed to admissions for merit aid, and I've told them about my extra-curricular activities in the last semester, my interest in the school, other offers and my SAT scores which I did not submit before because I'm an international student and admissions told me they wouldn't consider them. Wasn't sure if they'd consider them now but I thought it wouldn't hurt:
SAT I: 2230 (CR: 670, Math: 800, W: 760)
SAT Subject
Math II: 780
Physics: 800
Chemistry: 800</p>
<p>So my question is, is it possible to get any merit aid this late if I've appealed and expressed a lot of genuine interest? And if it is, then how much do they usually award?</p>
