**Dartmouth International Applicant's Thread 2017**

<p>PS. To other students who need a full ride/ lots of aid. Do you know that Dartmouth keeps revising its aid every year? Like it keeps reducing your FA award than it was in the first year. So.</p>

Its not a problem :slight_smile: I tend to post an update explaining the “customs” :stuck_out_tongue:
Very good to have you here - though the rest of the Indians might not be too happy that there is another one :stuck_out_tongue:
Good to see that you enjoy swimming (in particular), as I love it and we have a couple avid swimmers on here too :)</p>

<p>Interesting choice - what do you ultimately want to achieve afterwards with it? :slight_smile: </p>

<p>And best of luck for the Financial Aid… it seems like most people here require aid of some sort.</p>

<p>I will be needing aid…not a lot…but definitely some amount:( They do give scholarships, so Im guessing It’ll be fine:)</p>

<p>@raith- I love it (swimming).
Like not just enjoy it, I love love it :3</p>

<p>About other Indians? Lol. Well. I don’t think they’ll mind. And even if they do, there isn’t much to do about it! :p</p>

<p>I shall go into Research Stream. :)</p>

<p>A buddy^^^^</p>

<p>@Rew
I down play things sometimes -_- :stuck_out_tongue:
I love it too! Out of my sporting ECs on my resume/application, swimming is definitely the one that I have shown a huge passion for and have done kinda well at! :)</p>

<p>I think they will be happy that another Indian is here as you guys would have a lot in common :slight_smile: but I don’t think they will be happy that the pool from Asia/India is growing :stuck_out_tongue: haha</p>

<p>Remember Raith what I told you at first( why I initially chose Dartmouth:)lol)</p>

<p>@Quiver
yes… yes I do xP
sorry about all of this… haha :D</p>

<p>@raith
Oh its okay. And touche, Swimming is one impressive thing in my CV that shows my passion for the same :slight_smile:
I know i am late, but, what is your intended major?</p>

<p>@Rew - Haha!! Nice to see you here… </p>

<p>And well Instagram is not photography… In my Penn interview i was talking about my interest in photography when my interviewer interrupted me & clarified that I was not talking about “instagram” and then I said no, we had a good laugh & then continued… :p</p>

<p>And about Dartmouth’s aid. Firstly as a freshman applicant, Dartmouth is need blind in admissions - so how much you need doesn’t matter in your decision!!</p>

<p>About aid changin in subsequent years, I’m told it is because D asks you to submit CSS profile every year and as time progresses, the students are expected to contribute more via better on-campus jobs!! Haha!! But this is very sketchy info that I received!!</p>

<p>@Quiver - Good for you!! I still use my Dad’s old Nokia… :/</p>

<p>@Raith, Well I’ve been to the US(East to West coast travel!), England & France!! And I’ve roamed quite a lot around India! But there are so many exotic places in the world!! :D</p>

<p>@rew
Welcome :slight_smile:
I still have the good old iPhone 3G. Therefore, I need a camera because the iPhone camera has a really poor quality. :D</p>

<p>@Rew
Congrats on you then :slight_smile:
Another of the members here who is less frequently active is also really good at swimming, POmani.</p>

<p>I am planning on doing engineering, not sure which specific area yet, but I do know that I would like to take a green perspective towards it and hopefully bring in areas of sustainable energy/development. I’ll probably do mechanical and aersospace engineering.</p>

<p>@Rishav
Where in the US and France did you visit? :slight_smile: I haven’t been around much of the US or France, but I absolutely love France :D</p>

<p>I have a blackberry with a broken trackpad :stuck_out_tongue: seriously… it barely works… but crossing fingers for a samsung since my contract is due for an upgrade :D</p>

<p>@Raith :- I was wondering if there was a way to count who’s had how many posts in this thread!! Then we could determine who’s how active!! Haha!!</p>

<p>Anyone jobless enough to undertake this task?? :p</p>

<p>@Rishav

Where were you in England? I have spent my holidays in South England sometimes, I just adore this place. Kind of weird that I am living near the border to France, but never really been there :D</p>

<p>@sunny - I visited England! I didn’t live there!! Haha!! :p</p>

<p>I stayed for like 2 weeks there, going all around!! :D</p>

<p>@Raith - Ohh Great!! As expected, I’m third!! :D</p>

<p>Haha Rishav :stuck_out_tongue: only 30 posts or so behind Sunny… better try reply to everyone quickly xP</p>

<p>Boards (Final Exams) time, hence, i am very infrequent on CC. And we had made this CC group on Facebook for indian applicants. Ever since then, i dont CC much. But i remember i always wanted to be a senior member. Lol. And i still do. </p>

<p>@rishav: aah. But this girl in Dartmouth told me something else. Like, even if your family’s income is same throughout, the FA tends to reduce every year henceforth. </p>

<p>I am not entirely sure of my major? I am really interested in Neuroscience major but D doesnt offer that. So, mol BIo. Or Biomed Engineering. :3 </p>

<p>And oh, i am a traveler myself. I have covered almost whole of india, but the Rajasthan area. Pretty much covered the rest.
And UK and France.
Paris <3 but i loved Kashmir over any other place ever visited =)</p>
