<p>How are the admission statistics of International admissions requesting for FA in non-needblind schools vs those in need blind schools? In need-blind, I am referring to the big 6, need blind for internationals. Is it easier to just apply to the 6 then applying for FA in a non-need blind school?</p>
<p>bummmmmpppppppp.</p>
<p>keep in mind that at most universities, that the international pool is going to be a very competitive one with only a few slots available. at the "big 6" they are going to be amongst the hardest to obtain admission whether you are an international or a citizen/permanent resident as literally tens of thousands of students are applying and the admit rate is very low.</p>
<p>At schools that are not need blind to international students, all it means is when looking at 2 similary qualified applicants, the amount of need would be the "tie breaker".</p>
<p>Valid information to be sure, but well, I already know that. :P
I just asking whether it easier to apply to a school like Cornell, non-needblind, and ask for aid then applying to a school, non-needblind, like Yale.</p>
<p>it is going to be harder to get in to yale as a school that accepts less than 10% of those who apply regardless of how you apply (international, citzen, full need or full paying)</p>
<p>Cornell is going to be hard because you will have a very large diverse population of students including international who reside in NY who apply especially to the land grant schools of Cornell. Keep in mind that there are many international students who attend school/live in the U.S. and they are also part of the same pool of international students that apply from different countries.</p>
