Applying to College

<p>Does anybody know the best colleges for International Relations major. Also does that college have a minority department so I could get into it with an academic scholarship. I need colleges that have a minority department, and give scholarships/grants. Dankie--->Thank you in Afrikaans(language in South Africa)</p>

<p>wooo go springboks!</p>

<p>sorry, i have no knowledge of any schools that have a minority department, asking your counselor might help</p>

<p>Well, Tufts is well-known for its IR program. Not quite sure about that minority thing though.</p>

<p>lol yea springboks rule...south africa is the best lived there for 8years..</p>

<p>Ohiogirl07, international students are typically not considered for institutional financial aid as undergraduates, regardless of their race. However, you might have a look for foundations that sponsor scholarships for internationals studying in the US that you could use at the school of your choice.</p>

<p>Georgetown University</p>

<p>lol I'm not an international student. I have been living in Columbus, Ohio for four years, I have U.S Citzenship. I was born in Nigeria, and lived in South Africa for 8 years then moved to Ohio.</p>

<p>Georgetown U !!!!</p>

<p>Georgetown is expensive. My parents cant afford it..I can't look at any private universities, because my parents can't afford it.. so yea, all public</p>

<p>I think there is a significant difference between the top, say 5, programs and the rest, so since you are a US citizen, it seems worth trying for financial aid at schools like Georgetown, Tufts, Hopkins, and George Washington</p>

<p>But there are plenty of solid programs in the publics , listed here roughly in descending order of admissions degree-of-difficult:</p>

<p>Univ of Michigan
OSU- Columbus
Univ of South Carolina- Columbia
North Carolina State
James Madison
Michigan State
Florida State
Iowa
CUNY/Hunter
George Mason
UMass-Boston</p>

<p>the university of washington honors program has a good international studies program, but im not sure how easy that is to get into unless you are in-state</p>

<p>You may not be able to pay the sticker price for a private university but you don't know what kind of financial aid you'll receive. So don't rule out privates yet because there is always the chance that you will get a good aid package.</p>
