if HYP are need blind to internationals, then why WOULDN'T anyone apply for fin aid?

<p>Pretentiously rich parents who want to send money even tho they can apply for fin aid? doesn't make sense to me.</p>

<p>Um, I'm a little unclear as to what you're saying.</p>

<p>The Ivy League schools are need blind, and they will meet your need. They'll give the student various forums to fill out about the family's financial situation. They'll give the student an expected family contribution, and then they'll give aid for the difference (Tuition-EFC). If the student does not need aid (their family contribution covers the tuition), then they won't get aid.</p>

<p>ah ic. so if ur family can afford it, then you are not elligible, thats what ur sayign?</p>

<p>Yes, only students that need the money will receive it.</p>
