International student....help.

<p>Could you suggest some colleges that provide fin. aid to international students when applied ED?</p>

<p>Thanks to Carolyn for this post:</p>

<p>*The U.S. Government has an excellent resource for international students thinking about attending a U.S. college or university. The site below offers information about (1) the admissions process, (2) information about paying for college here, including financial aid and scholarships (4) visa requirements and (4) a good explanation of how the US education system differs from other countries.
I highly recommend this as a first stop for ALL international students thinking about coming to the U.S.: *</p>

<p>But also keep in mind :</p>

<p>There are only a small amount of schools that are first of all need blind to international students (so in most cases your ability to pay will be factored in to the admissions decision). This will be compounded with the fact that there are also a small number of schools that offer aid to international students. </p>

<p>Off of the top of my head:</p>

<p>Harvard
Yale
Princeton
Williams
MIT</p>

<p>But these schools are basically a reach for everyone who applies. Since your application will go into the pool of international applicants, you will have many international students applying for 100 or less spots in these schools.</p>

<p>IMHO, the combination of these 2 things ( you are looking for aid ) means that you need to carefully weigh your options since ED is binding.</p>
