<p>i am a international student
i got 2270 on the december sat1
i got 800 in math , 750 in physics and 760 in chemistry(sat2)
i have a gpa of 4.5(app.)
i dont have a really impressive extracurricular activity record, it is just okay
what are my chances of getting into need blind colleges like harvard, mit, princeton etc??
if the possibility is low , what are the other good options available
(i cant afford more than US$10000 per annum)
thanks</p>
<p>i feel your chances would good
try improving your eca</p>
<p>You could also check out schools just below the Ivies like Williams and Middlebury, who also offer financial aid to internationals.</p>
<p>Just so you know, most American schools are need blind. Check out other options than just the Ivies.</p>

<p>most American schools are need-blind for Americans. Only six colleges offer need blind admissions for Internationals: Harvard, Yale, Princeton, MIT, Williams, Middlebury.</p>
<p>it's hard to get into HYP without a real impressive EC records, especially since you're an international. and need-based admissions for intls are very very competitive; but I suggest you still try your best, write great essays, get good recs, and you still might have a small chance. are there scholarships available in your country?</p>
<p>hi!! "screwitlah"
thanks for the valuable comments
i feel i cant improve on eca right now as i have a very short time left
i am planning to take the sat again
how important are the sat, eca and gpa for need blind universities for international students(the 6 colleges mentioned in the previous reply)
(relative importance)
iam presently at singapore and i think it`s not easy to get scholarships out here
thanks again</p>
<p>LOL i'm from singapore too. man you jc 2 this year, or have u alr graduated? which jc do you hail from?</p>
<p>oh, unless you're from an international school here.</p>
