<p>I'm applying to a bunch of liberal arts colleges RD, but Swarthmore is my top choice so far...
Wondering if Swarthmore will take me?</p>
<p>I'm an international student (Nationality:Korean, lived in the US for 12 years), currently attending a Korean boarding school on a scholarship because dad passed away middle of my sophomore year, and mom can't work with a bad back...been working ever since to earn money, and with no official income, my vacation income+weekend job will come out to approximately $30K next year...</p>
<p>Most likely be applying with FA...</p>
