<p>I’m 100% Thai. Have been in this international school in Thailand since KG. I would have three SATIIs, a good SATI result, and a TOEFL score ready. I’m not having much work right now, so I’ll probably have more than enough time to do the essays.</p>
<p>I already tried talking to my counselor. She promised that she would bring it up in a faculty meeting, but its still a slim chance–my school has never given any form of scholarship or financial aid for 50 years (since its founding). I don’t see any reason why they should try to retain me.</p>
<p>I’m a bit worried right now. So far, all the need-blind colleges and those that give lots of fin. aid to intl students seem to be the really hard ones to get into (and even though Stanford is my dream college, I don’t think its realistic to be caring about names over money right now). Which colleges do you think I should aim for?</p>
