<p>which is better????
oh n gives aid to intls..</p>
<p>They're both excellent schools. Two of my relatives went to Bates and loved it. Statistically, Bates is less diverse then MHC and it's in Lewiston, ME which is somewhat isolated and without the benefit of the 5 college consortium.
As far as fin. aid. for intl students, I know MHC does award grants etc. but on a competitive basis...I'm not sure what Bates' policy is, but I'm sure they say on their financial aid website. Good luck!</p>
<p>k.. thnx.. will check teh site properly..</p>
