Hi all!
I wanted to ask if there is here any international student I’d reach out to here.
I want to ask about the amount of financial aid received, college life,etc…
I’m a freshman at Scripps right now but I dont have FA!
Hi Alicia, would we talk on Instagram if you won’t mind?
yes， messgae me yours
In a previous thread you created, you said you needed basically a full ride to Scripps…or any other college as your family could contribute $1000 a year.
Please read my response there…it quotes the aid amounts Scripps gives international students.
Honestly, it doesn’t matter what any other student from Scripps received.
Did you apply ED to Scripps?

It doesn’t matter what others receive, because every financial aid application is very different for every student. Your aid, if any, is calculated according to your family’s finances. In other words, you wont get the same package that a domestic student receives because their packages will include government aid, local aid, private aid that is only directed at domestic applicants.
An international applicant is not eligible for grants and loans sponsored by the US government, or US State agencies.
Your previous posts asks for information on various colleges and universities financial aid: Rice, Washington & Lee, Clairemont McKenna, and now Scripps.
Your selected schools are NEED-AWARE.
That means that your ability to pay WILL be considered during your application review.
All of the schools have limited money. The Pandemic hit the colleges in their funding. They didn’t make any money, for almost 2 years, on Room and Board fees, franchise restaurants, school stores, school merchandise, and sporting events. That is millions of dollars in revenue.
Scripps has limited dollars. The majority of their dollars go to domestic applicants. They have very limited dollars for international applicants. The few dollars, that they have, are extremely competitive. You should apply, but you need to know that you may be accepted, but with few or any dollars.

Did you apply ED to Scripps? And get accepted….well…hopefully not since you said you got deferred from Babson ED…and you are only supposed to apply to ONE school ED.

No, I didn’t apply for Scripps and how did you know that I applied for Babson?
Because you posted on this site that you were deferred ED for Babson…
So I gather you are inquiring about all these other schools because you want to apply regular decision? Is that right?
Please check each college website….look for the financial aid for international students. Most are very clear about what limits they have or don’t have for international students. That info is far more important than what other students have received for financial aid.
