Maybe not. Then should I modify my list with lower ranked colleges?
Not necessarily. You should target schools that are “need blind” as opposed to “need aware.” Need blind schools will not take your financial situation into account when they decide to admit your or not.
You should also look for schools, like Amherst, that meet need for international students. Some smaller colleges also are generous with foreign students and prize international diversity on their campuses. You might look at Clark University or Earlham College. These are also less competitive with respect to admission.
earlham is a very good school that provides full need. Definitely give it a shot.
Thanks a lot!
bump I still need more evevaluations.
