Chance/ Match Me: Rising HS Senior - International (Canada) 3.91/1540, CS/ME major for MIT, Stanford, Georgia Tech, UC Berkeley, Carnegie Mellon

Is this per year or total?

You will need to eliminate UC Berkeley and Georgia Tech as you’ll get neither financial aid nor merit aid to cover the gap in cost of attendance.

From your list, only MIT are Princeton need blind in admissions and meet the full demonstrated need of international students. The rest are need aware for international students, and none provide merit scholarships.

Internships will not provide sufficient income to cover the cost of your education.

As an international student, you will need to show you have sufficient funds to cover all 4 years of your education. Else you will not get a student visa.
And you have to show money you already have - cannot rely on future expected income from internships, etc.

Tagging @tsbna44 to see if he has suggestions for schools that will come within budget.
