Hey guys I was waitlisted at Mt.Holyoke and Iam an intl student.I am nw looking for less selsctive colleges tht meet full aid for intl students for spring or fall intake.Your suggestions r welcome.I want to major in economics n mechanical engineering n economics
There aren’t any for Fall 2015. However if you take a gap year and build a list with colleges that offer merit scholarships, you can find a full tuition scholarship or perhaps even a full ride for Fall 2016.
Check the “financial aid forum” and look at the pinned thread “links to popular threads about low cost universities and scholarships” (or something like that!)
Thank you

You may want to ask them about international student eligibility for their stats-based full rides. Of course, you would likely have to wait a year.
Full merit scholarships don’t usually cover all costs. They usually do not cover personal expenses, travel costs and insurance. For an int’l, those costs would be about $7k per year…and you’d have to show that you have that money. Do you?
no i dnt.I guess I.ll take a gap year and apply for fall nxt year
