<p>Need based aid? Is that what you want to know about? If so…your stats do not determine awarding of need based aid…it is your parents’ incomes and assets that determine need based aid.</p>

<p>That being said…I hope mom2 sees this because U of Alabama might offer you some merit aid.</p>

<p>Yes, apply to Alabama. With your M+CR you’d get a full tuition scholarship. </p>

<p>What is your major? If it’s eng’g or Comp Sci, then you’d get $2500 per year more.</p>

<p>Thanks but does my nationality lower my chance to receive such an aid? Because they told me that chance for international to receive full tuition is very low (nearly i possible)</p>

<p>Alabama’s award is assured and based on stats. Your nationality is irrelevant. You have the stats, you get the award. Alabama is a rare school that does this for int’ls.</p>

<p>What is your major?</p>

<p>You need to apply now…the app is online already. You also need to submit the scholarship app - it’s a formality but must be done.</p>
