<p>SAT 1: 2080 (will retake. expect 2200+)
SAT 2: math2 800, chem 800, phys 770
rank top 5% in a super competitive school
good ECs
My family can pay only 20000 USD/yr</p>

<p>Can anyone list some reach/target/safety schools for me?
I am completely lost… my family should have been able to pay full cost, but due to the financial crisis, I now need a substantial amount of aid.</p>

<p>Hi ppl …</p>

<p>I have a problem figuring out which university will give me good scholarship/aid . I am an international student.</p>

<p>My stats are just about average - since i am an international … figuring out my GPA would be a problem … but i guess an average of B- to B</p>

<p>My Sat score is 2030 - 700 M , 700 CR , 630 CW</p>

<p>I plan to do an Undergrad degree in Mech Eng</p>

<p>You won’t know what your financial aid picture looks like until you actually apply to a school. Your first step is researching schools that fit you academically. Apply, and file your financial aid paperwork, just like everyone else.</p>

<p>To American ears, starting the conversation with “where can I get the most money” paints you as an unpleasant parasite. Your question is jarring and unpleasant.</p>

<p>Well, you can’t apply to any school, if you can’t afford it.
It would be perfect if you can attend at an school that fits academicly AND you can afford.
But as the financial situation of many really good students shows, this isn’t the case, especially in times of the recession.
American Ears often don’t need to hear the sound of financial aid as many schools are need-blind for them.
For us internationals, this isn’t the case.</p>

<p>I hate when money restricts education</p>

<p>I got in EA with 82% FA at Colby-Sawyer College. So I’ll advice all international students who need substantial financial aid to apply to Colby-Sawyer. And the following articles may be interesting to you.</p>

<p>but how much finacial aid will be provided, under the circumstance of unrecovered economy?</p>

<p>Hi, does anyone know anything about financial aid packages for international students at Cornell (preferrably Hotel School)?
I really like hospitality management but my family is in tight financial situation.
I can’t decide whether to prioritize my major interest or financially generous colleges!</p>

<p>my first SAT is 2150: CR 630, W 750, M 770
Math2: 780
I’m also doing IB diploma, involved in many extracurriculars.</p>

<p>i wanted to know how much on average does education cost at Mcgill UofT or Waterloo for international students?
Do these unis offer financial aid to international students? if yes how much on average?</p>

<p>and the MOST IMP question … please anyone answer this one… how much can one earn during the year in canada on part time jobs? please answer this quesiton… please anyone…
thanks</p>

<p>Do I get to apply for Financial Aid if I aply early?say,Brown?</p>

<p>yizyiz827, Cornell financial aid really sucks for international students. Most international students (myself included) get accepted but get $0 in aid and are given an offer to be put on a waitlist for aid. The most I’ve heard people get from this is about $10,000. To increase your chances of getting a substantial amount of aid, apply for aid by Cornell’s international early deadline which I think is January 1st.</p>

<p>dragzta, those Canada schools generally cost around CAD$40,000 per year. Canadian schools do not give much aid to internationals AT ALL because most of them are public and the majority of funding comes from their government as opposed to endowments like US private institutions. It is therefore cheaper for Canadians to study in Canada than internationals because part or their taxes go towards education or something like that. There are very few full scholarships to internationals. UBC has 12 International Leader of Tomorrow Awards for which you have to ask your school to nominate you and UofT has 2 awards for international students (but I can’t remember the name of it) which you must also be nominated for by your school. Otherwise, the most you’d be offered is an entrance scholarship of CAD$5000 or less. Sorry, but I don’t know about earnings for part-time jobs.</p>

<p>GatitaZ, you should be able to apply for financial aid if you apply early, but those policies vary from school to school. The best way to get that answer is to e-mail the financial aid office at Brown and find out for yourself.</p>
