hey! i’m an international student needing aid and am applying to williams. Considering that Williams is need-aware for internationals but also one of the leading LACs providing extremely generous aid to international students, how far do 3 As and 2 Bs hurt my chances at williams? We don’t have the grading system as in the USA here in our country, a third-world country and underrepresented in colleges and universities in the US. I have a decent list of extracurricular activities, leadership position in some, SAT score of 2250 and an extremely personal story about my life. any response would be appreciated. thanks!
You have a fair chance. It all depends, and you can never be sure of admission, but I got admitted with similiar scores and grades and asking for FA as an intl student.
hey! thanks 
in my case i’l be needing A LOT of aid (parents can only afford 7-8k annually) to what extent will that work against me?
