Sigh. I will most likley to attend IU (due to scholarship), but just wanted to apply to other schools as well..</p>

<p>if for fin aid, u can cross nyu and ND, nearly Chicago out</p>

<p>can you give me advice on what schools i can apply with financial aid?</p>

<p>

Due to your citizenship status, you will face significantly tougher competition than the domestic applicants during the admissions process at the aforementioned institutions. </p>

<p>

It is unlikely. </p>

<p>Having said that, most likely acceptance at Notre Dame and NYU, but you probably will get little to no financial assistance.</p>

IU it is then… Any state schools you recommend?
I really wanted to get out of this town, but I guess I will have to stay here for another 4 years…
BTW, thank you very much ^</em></strong>_____^</p>
