I have applied to Pvt liberal art colleges and got admission to some of the names on the list above. I did not apply for aid. But is it possible to get some scholarship from them to help make up my decision before accepting. If yes how to best do it and whom to contact??
If you didn’t apply for aid when you sent in your app some colleges won’t consider you for aid any of the years you’re there. If they did, a lot of students who are concerned they’ll be rejected because they need aid wouldn’t apply for it to increase their chances of admission. Once they got accepted they’d apply. Some probably do that anyway, but the danger is that the college might have already awarded all their aid for the year. The best you can do is call and ask.
You can ask but most merit scholarships were awarded at admission.
If you didn’t receive any merit scholarship and didn’t apply for financial aid, you have to make your choice based on the costs as they are now.
Thankyou. Most helpful.
Not sure what “list above” you are referring to, but as for FA, its too late.
Please, how can I apply for International Student aid?
It doesn’t exist. Either you apply to a university that offers financial aid to international students, or merit aid to all including internationals… or there’s no aid.
You HAVE to look at each school’s financial and merit scholarhsip policies. There isn’t one-fit-for-all rules.
