<p>Does someone know the financial aid policy to Canadian students at Stanford?</p>
<pre><code> They said that only the U.S residents can apply to need-blind financial aid, however Canadian citizen is not requested to turn in the financial aid form or the certification of finance in their financial aid website,Applying for Aid : Stanford University. They just request Canadian citizen to turn in tax document like the U.S residents.

<p>It will be greatly appreciated if someone tell their policy to Canadian residents.</p>
<p>Stanford is not need-blind for Canadian residents/citizens. In other words, whether or not you are applying for aid will affect your chance of getting in.</p>
<p>You are right. Stanford just needs Canadian citizens to turn in tax documents like the U.S. residents.</p>
<p>Thank you very much for your kind reply. As there has been no reply, I was looking for their policy at internet and found the following script of 2006; </p>
<pre><code> “The aid plan will be funded by President John Hennessy’s new “Stanford Challenge,” a $4.3 billion capital campaign. International students would be admitted on a “need-blind” basis, just as U.S. and Canadian students already are. Admission decisions, therefore, would not take into account students’ ability to pay.” ( AACRAO Transcript - Stanford to Offer Financial Aid to International Students)
