Would you consider a HBCU (Historically Black College Uni)? If so, there is a thread discussing ones that may be good for internationals needing aid. I will look for it and come back to add the link to this post.
The above quote and other comments in the A cautionary Tale & Question thread have given me great food for thought about when HBCUs should be suggested. @ucbalumnus specifically points to an often overlooked HBCU that offers good scholarships, which makes me wonder if HBCUs should be recommended to more international students (particularly POC) looking for financial aid to attend a US college or university.
(edit) What HBCUs offer aid (need-based and/or merit) to international students?
Which HBCUs would you recommend to an international and why?
Are there HBCUs with diversity as an institutional goal, and if so what type of diversity? (see Non-Black Students at HBCUs for some discussion along these lines)
(edit) If an international student does not need aid, which HBCUs would you recommend for consideration? I realize this is more difficult to answer since fit would come into play, but are there some HBCUs that offer more resources for international students than others?
