<p>my apologies....hmm I didn't know international students were eligible for aid, I know a couple of years ago when I was a freshman up here, I heard a couple of students who were "permenant resident aliens" (ie they had a green card) who were talking about how they didn't qualify for financial aid and they had to fund their educational all themselves. Then again I might be comparing apples and oranges to compare your situation with theirs.</p>
<p>My original point to AlmostIrish2006 still stands, that you (fv920) might indeed likely be in a different category of applicants as you put it then his attempt to reiterate the need-blind financial aid spiel.</p>
