<p>Hey,</p>
<p>I have a simple question. What are some colleges that offer no or VERY little aid to internationals. I heard NYU is one of them. Please let me know of some others.</p>
<p>Most…</p>
<p>hmom i would apperciate if you named a few … maybe some top 30 research universities or LACs.</p>
<p>It would probably be easier to name which schools DO give aid to internationals, though I haven’t heard of any schools that do. </p>
<p>But I’m sure there are schools out there that do, but I don’t need to worry about it so I never looked for it. Good luck.</p>
<p>Public universities typically do not give need-based aid to international students, so Cal, Michigan, UCLA, UIUC, UNC, UT-Austin, UVa, William and Mary and Wisconsin are top universities that do not offer aid to international students. </p>
<p>Most top private universities offer someaid to internationals, but most of them offer very little and prefer international students who are able to afford the cost of attendance.</p>
<p>Agree with what Alexandre says. Most schools have very little money for internationals. Some schools that have been need blind for them in the past, like Middlebury, no longer are. This will be an incredibly difficult few years for internationals at US colleges. While Midd announced their intentions, many colleges will quietly just accept full pay internationals during these bad economic times. </p>
<p>As someone above said, it would be much, much easier to list the few schools that have substantial money for internationals. Even many relatively rich schools, like Stanford, have long chosen not to spend much money to bring internationals to campus.</p>
<p>So are you all saying that internationals who can pay full tuition will have a huge advantage? since universities want the money anyway?</p>
<p>yes, rich internationals who can pay full tuition (and probably more if they had to) will have a huge advantage over an international who needs a full ride. however, it’s not impossible, depending on the school and the applicant. the only college i know of that is need-blind to internationals is Yale, and they’re one of the wealthiest schools in the nation.</p>
<p>The handful of schools that are need blind to internationals–a few ivies and LACs, supposedly don’t look at need when internationals apply. Whether that is strictly true is often debated here. At the rest, 99 plus percent of colleges, an international who can pay has a huge advantage, more so right now than ever.</p>
<p>Dartmouth, MIT, Harvard, Princeton and Yale are the only national universities I know that have explicitly stated that their need-blind policy is extended to internationals.</p>
<p>I see… anyone else?</p>
<p>Amherst College is also need-blind for internationals.</p>

<p>Wake Forest from what I have seen is pretty generous (or at least offers aid) to internationals.</p>
<p>I know that Boston College does not offer any aid to internationals.</p>
