<p>It’s not an incorrect generalization. Many elite schools do not offer very limited for international students, myself included and I graduated with a higher debt than my American friends as a result. I had tens of thousands in debt. I also didn’t mention that I thought it was a concern to you, you were the one who brought Amherst into into the picture. And I had friends who also left American elite colleges with higher debt than their American classmates. Some received financial aid and some didn’t but it wasn’t enough. One of my students just recently received a scholarship to Stanford and left because it still wasn’t enough. She previously left Yale for the same reason after one year there. Her debt, I would argue, was more than her parents would have needed to bear if she was an American citizen. Though on the bright side I was left with a hardworking undergraduate student in my classes.</p>
