<p>Hello all,</p>
<p>I have been looking into applying to the Ivy league schools this fall. I know that most of them are need-blind for admissions if you're a US citizen. However, how does it work for Canadian/International students? </p>
<p>If they aren't need-blind for Canadians/Internationals, does it put those who need financial aid at a disadvantage? If so, how bad of a disadvantage is it?</p>
<p>Several high level US universities and colleges are need blind for internationals. Amherst, Dartmouth, Harvard, Princeton, Yale, MIT and UC Berkeley. </p>
<p>For need-aware universities, it puts internationals who need financial aid at a severe disadvantage. </p>
<p>UC Berkeley is not need blind for internationals.</p>
<p>Out of the ivy league, which ones are need blind for internationals? I see you mentioned HYP and Dartmouth. How about the rest?</p>
<p>Brown University
Duke University
UPenn</p>
<p>Also, how about Johns Hopkins?</p>
<p>@bouders - When you say at a severe disadvantage, in what way? Would they accept people who have lower stats then you but don’t require FA? Is it that bad?</p>
<p>In addition to bouders list (with the exception of UC Berkeley, since it doesn’t provide any need-base aid to Canadians), UPenn and Columbia are also need-blind to Canadians exclusively out of all International applicants.</p>
<p>@PlebeianDreamer - Oh no way! I didn’t know UPenn was. Awesome!!</p>
