<p>Jacobs gives out good aid IMO.</p>

<p>I got deferred by a need blind school during the ed round so I probs have no chance anywhere if I don’t get the green card soon (my family recently applied for permanent residency). Sigh.
I can always go to community college though. Good thing I won’t need an f visa.</p>
<p>Hi 2chainz, just curious: What was the school that “deferred” you? Was it the only one you applied to? Do you have good stats?</p>
<p>I am just starting my research and this thread has been quite enlightening and extremely helpful.</p>

<p>Middlebrury isn’t need-blind now for international students</p>
<p>Sent from my GT-I9003 using CC</p>
<p>Wesleyan will no longer be need blind for all students as of this admission cycle.</p>
<p>Can I get a job as an international student studying at a university in the US??</p>
<p>International students here on student visas to study in college have VERY VERY limited ability to work in this country while studying. VERY limited.</p>
<p>For those who are saying Middlebury is “Need-Blind” for internationals should be aware that Middlebury is “Need-Aware” for Internationals as stated in their website.</p>
<p>“In the case of international students, Middlebury follows a need-aware admissions policy.”</p>

<p>umm… i have a question how about if im an american citizen in US but want to study out side of the Us in the UK is there also international Finance help???</p>
<p>Hey Everyone - I am pretty upset. I’ve always wanted to study in the US for numerous reasons. However, I have seen the cost of College each year and I am just shocked. I know financial aid is available, but I am an international student.
Also, I am not sure if fees have to be paid upfront? Similarly, does it mean that with financial aid, I could be up to 100,000$ in debt after my four year bachelors? I hear all the time of students from England that get full scholarships to Harvard or Yale etc, I really wish that could be me. However, I have absolutely no idea of what will be needed for that to happen? My University Guidance counsellor has seen a few occasions when this has happened and he encouraged me to apply. However, my mother is a single parent and I come from a not ‘well - off’ background, so being able to afford some of the fees will just be an illusion! </p>
<p>Any help would be great, but so far, my vision of America seems to be slipping away!</p>
<p>Help In ISFAA!!- an international student
I’m filling out the ISFAA for Vanderbilt University. I have no clue how to respond to Section F - Expected Support for Educational Expenses. </p>
<ol>
<li>Enter the expected amount of annual support toward your educational costs from the sources listed. (for all 4 years of undergrad)</li>
</ol>
<p>I am unsure about whether I will get a summer job or not during my studies in US, so what should I write in my expected vacation earning columns?? I am afraid that if I leave it blank this may not affect my chances of getting in as my family contribution is also very less. </p>
<p>Thank you</p>
<p>Hello,</p>
<p>I am currently a freshman at one of the local universities in Timisoara, Romania, studying Computer Science in english. I was wondering if I should look for transfer opportunities in the US and where should I look…</p>
<p>I must say that I will not be able to pay tuition unless I’ll be allowed to work (part time or full time) because I have experience as an IT analyst, being a volunteer at my university’s IT department and dealing with mundane helpdesk tasks (installing/optimizing OS, providing assistance) and network management (configuring of switches and routers) and also a short experience with AD and Microsoft Exchange.</p>
<p>I was wondering if these would be considered as a plus and if I’ll be able to get a full scholarship or the ability to work and pay for college and still attend it.</p>
<p>Thank you for all of your replies and your time wasted on reading.</p>
<p>You ability to work in the United States while here on a visa to study…will be VERY significantly limited.</p>
<p>But does my experience and knowledge count when applying? I’m interested in universities where I could learn computer science.</p>
<p>Xcuse93, I think you will get much better answers to YOUR questions if you start your own thread instead of piggybacking on a thread that is OVER a year old, with a different type of question entirely. </p>
<p>Your experience might help you with SOME acceptances, but the experience will NOT help at all when it comes to the awarding of need based aid.</p>
<p>Curtisdean. Since you are from England I would assume that you are taking/have taken A-levels. You may be interested in the merit scholarships at Colorado State University-Pueblo which have A-level specifications. The SAT/ACT test score requirements are posted at <a href=“http://www.colostate-pueblo.edu/FinancialAid/Scholarships/Pages/default.aspx”>http://www.colostate-pueblo.edu/FinancialAid/Scholarships/Pages/default.aspx</a>
For British students (or other students taking A-Levels), the A level grade requirements are ABB for Presidential Scholar ($8,000 discount off out-of-state tuition), BBB for Distinguished Scholar ($5,000 discount off out-of-state tuition), and BBC for the Promising Scholar( $2,500 discount off out-of-state tuition). These A-level requirements replace the GPA requirements; however, the student still needs to meet the ACT or SAT requirements for each scholarship. In addition to the tuition scholarships (which are renewable), international students also qualify for an international access grant of upto $4,000 per year to assist with living expenses.</p>
<p>Good luck with your search.</p>
