<p>Hi guys, I was wondering how do international students apply for aid. Is it through the CSS PROFILE? Can someone give me the basic overview of how it's done?</p>
<p>Also, if it's possible, can you guys provide any official links to the information?</p>
<p>Finally, are the postmark dates for each university different? I always thought it was Feb 15, but today I just realized Cornell's was Jan 2. Can anyone tell me anything about this?</p>
<p>THANKS for all your help! </p>
<p>I greatly appreciate it!</p>
<p>Yes, different schools have different deadline dates. Each school is independent.</p>
<p>If a school uses CSS Profile, then you would use that.</p>
<p>However, as an int’l student, you should first look to see if your schools even give aid to int’ls. Some schools have a policy of no aid to internationals; some do give some aid. Few give a lot of aid to internationals, so if you need a lot of aid, then you’ll need to target the few schools that can give a lot of aid. Of course, some schools can only give a few int’l students much aid, and some are “need aware”.</p>
<p>How much can your parents pay for your college costs each year? </p>
<p>What schools are you applying to besides Cornell?</p>
