I got accepted But.....

<p>hey,</p>

<p>My first acceptance is IIT this year.
I was so glad....</p>

<p>But The scholarship is just $9000 per year...
And have to pay about $27K per year.
This is sth impossible for me....
Is there any chance that they will increase my award?
If no then I am leaving it. But it was my top choice college.
Feeling so Bad.. :'(</p>

<p>Hi! I go to IIT. </p>

<ul>
<li>Can you get federal aid? (FAFSA)</li>
<li>Loans through the school (I use Citibank, but I hear that Chase is good, and their reps are on campus a lot)</li>
<li>You can work during school to get a start on paying off your loans etc (a lot fo students work for the school in some capacity, and a lot work off-campus.) I have two jobs on-campus. </li>
<li>additional scholorships (check out the Leadership Academy full scholarships) so you'll only have to get loans for your first year. Leadership</a> Academy at Illinois Institute of Technology</li>
</ul>

<p>It's worth it. I've toured a dozen colleges, and IIT is the best (for me). ^_^</p>

<p>Thanks,
But i am an international student. I cant fill up FAFSA.</p>

<p>ANd LA Scholarship is available to only those who have completed at least one semister at IIT.
I just got accepted. Can i apply? </p>

<p>Are there any athletic scholarships in IIT?
I am a Soccer Player( A-DIvision League Player of My country)</p>

<p>What are other scholarships that I can apply?</p>

make sure to check out the Recruiting forms at <a href="http://athletics.iit.edu/admissions.php%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://athletics.iit.edu/admissions.php&lt;/a>
Here's the one for mens soccer: <a href="http://athletics.iit.edu/pdfs/soccer_m_recruiting.pdf%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://athletics.iit.edu/pdfs/soccer_m_recruiting.pdf&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p>

<p>Also you should contact the Office of Multicultural Student Services at
<a href="http://omss.iit.edu/%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://omss.iit.edu/&lt;/a> because they can probably give you good advice. :)</p>

<p>Sorry,but international students generally get the shaft when it comes to financial aid, with the exception of some top universities. You can always appeal a financial aid decision especially if you were given more money elsewhere at a comparible school.</p>

Bro, what was your GPA and SAT score? As well as extracurriculars? Thanks! @kCcer
