All Applications RD
Please Suggest any more universities irrespective of country if deadline has not passed.
You look competitive for the UC’s but expect around $35K/year in loans (this is minus the 20K) as an International student.
Good Luck.
Thank You for your opinion btw I forgot to mention my toefl score of 115(30-R 30-L 29-W 26-W)
You’ve got a pretty good chance for a lot of these universities. Which one is your top choice?
Cornell but I do realise it’s a n IVY League so I don’t really have my hopes up. Can you like rate them in order of chances ?
None of the above at $20k
I understand that but as I already said that I am willing to take out loans . I have been assured a loan of at least 200k.
UCLA-match
UCB-high match
UCSD - match
UCD-low match/safety
UIUC- low match but if your major is computer science or any field in engineering then it would be a high match( cause the major is really competitive)
CORNELL-reach
BOSTON UNIVERSITY-match
NYU- match
JOHNS HOPKINS-reach
U Pennsylvania-reach
Stevens institute of technology- don’t know about this one
UT Dallas - Safety
Your reaches are mainly because they are highly selective schools and admission to them is partly on the basis of your merit and partly on the basis of your luck.
Thank You!
Yes my intended major is CS Engineering
Ya that is true IVY leagues are highly predictable, one can only keep up their hopes.
