Financial aid in CalTech

<p>I'm going to apply to CalTech and also for finaid. It doesn't provide need-blind finaid for internationals. But is it possible that they make decision to inform me that I will be admited if I have money? In that case I can try to find sponsors(they usually require to provide a proof of being ALREADY admitted).</p>

<p>unrelated to your question…what do you mean by sponsors?Co-signer or?</p>

<p>I’m not a hundred percent sure, but from what I know I don’t think they would tell you whether or not they’d admit you if you were willing to pay.</p>

<p>International? Where from?</p>

<p>

That’s usually not how it works. If you are applying for financial aid, you will either be admitted with aid or rejected. </p>

<p>That being said, if you think you can find other ways to finance your education, you can apply without seeking financial aid and state that you need a formal offer of admission before you can secure funding from other sources.</p>

<p>In my country it is a rare thing to get to a world-class top university, so they are people willing to help those students. Also there is a specialized fund.</p>

<p>I think you’re right, I think of applying also to some universities offering need-blind asmission for internationals.</p>

<p>A school could also accept you without giving aid, and leave it up to you to figure out where to get the rest of the money if you want to attend.</p>
