College Search & Selection
1

<p>I'm an international applicant from Tbilisi, Georgia.
My stats are -
SAT - 1930 (590 CR, 650 M, 690 W)
SAT Subjects - 660 Biology M, 670 World History
TOEFL - 108 (24 R, 27 L, 27 S, 30 W)
GPA - 9.34/10 (would be 3.7 from a 4.0 scale)
My school doesn't offer AP or Honors or IB; they don't weight the GPA.</p>

<p>I want to major in Neuroscience and minor in Writing. </p>

<p>This year I applied to -
Colby, Grinnell, Smith (ED II) REJECTED
Bryn Mawr, Mount Holyoke, Franklin & Marshall WAIT LISTED => REJECTED
Drew, Westmont, University of Iowa, Agnes Scott, Transylvania, Manhattanville, Loyola Chicago ACCEPTED (won't attend due financial reasons)</p>

<p>I need almost full financial aid. I could contribute around $6,500. </p>

<p>I have really great recommendations as I'm one of the best students at my school. Also amazing essays. Pretty decent ECs (Debate's Club member, winner of European Games by EUMM, Psychology training course 120 hours, pass with distinction in several online coursera courses, FLEX semi finalist, Russian teacher at school etc.)</p>

<p>Georgian, English, Russian - Fluent
Spanish, Persian - Intermediate </p>

<p>I am thinking about enrolling at LCC International University in Klaipeda, Lithuania this Fall and then re applying as first year (if it's even possible) or transfer.
I need to know schools who offer almost full ride to INTERNATIONAL TRANSFER applicants.
I will probably apply to Smith, Mount Holyoke, Bates, Scripps...
I can't think of any other which offers financial aid and please help me.
I would appreciate it very much! </p>

<p>Thanks :)</p>

<p>Please respond I really need your help
and I will re take SAT in October aiming around 2000-2100
and most certainly my college GPA will be 4.0.</p>

<p>Applying as a transfer would only make things worse. very few offer lots of aid to int’l transfers.</p>

<p>The problem is that the schools that give full aid to int’ls will require higher test scores. </p>

<p>You’re going to have to go to undergrad in your own country.</p>

<p>I have to lie then that I don’t go to the University and I’m taking a gap year and re take SAT.</p>

<p>Trust me friend of mine got in Bates 1880 full ride from my school
and the other 1920 Holyoke and she pays only 10k
the other friend of mine has 2260 and 800s in three science subjects along with 4.0 GPA and he got rejected everywhere even in Colby, Grinnell, Skidmore not to mention ivies, caltech and etc.</p>

<p>It’s not about SAT, it’s like a lottery.</p>

<p>I won’t get my BA in Georgia NO WAY</p>

<p>The worst option will be Jacobs University in Bremen which is a pretty good school but I’m sure I will end up in Smith or Holyoke</p>
