Max. aid for international students

<p>Hi, I was wondering if an international student for the class of 2014 can tell me the maximum amount of aid that they have received. I'm looking to appeal, since they have calculated my EFC to be higher than what I'd predicted and just wanted to see if they're generous or low with funds this year.</p>

<p>Thanks :)</p>

<p>Oh the same situation here, dancer1502. Could any one help us?</p>

<p>Please, someone. :)</p>

<p>I have no idea but check this out.</p>

<p>[College</a> Search - Mount Holyoke College - MHC - International Students](<a href=“College Search - BigFuture | College Board”>College Search - BigFuture | College Board)</p>

<p>Based on this calculation, the average FA is $35k. Although this source is reliable, this calculation is vague.</p>

<p>Yeah, that was vague. :stuck_out_tongue: Thanks though!</p>

<p>I’ve emailed them for an appeal. Let’s see.</p>

<p>Good luck!
Keep us updated!</p>

<p>hey guys! so I got 40 566$ financial aid but I don’t know if MHC really costs 52 036 $ or more because I heard some people say it’s 56 000 $ , so can u actually try to ask for more grants or loans ?
txs !</p>

<p>Contact the FA Office, better safe than sorry</p>

<p>I’ve just emailed them to appeal too. Let me know if you succeed, dancer ;)</p>

<p>I just got scholarships of 3000$ per year at univ of Minnesota</p>

<p>@dancer1502: Have you heard anything back from SFS yet?</p>

<p>Yeah, they’ve asked me to send them my expenses statements, etc.
Gathering them and will be sending them by 2-3 days. Let’s see.</p>

<p>Do you mind if I ask what reasons you put to appeal and how much you requested? 'Cause I haven’t heard back from them yet T__T</p>

<p>hey guys! did anyone get their package yet ? if u are an international student who got his package can u tell me what are the tuition and fees for us ? cause I know it’s 52 036$ but I am sure there are additional expenses not notified on the web site .
TXS !!</p>

<p>Tuition and fees are the same for all students, lilita. But the total cost is $55,566, including health insurance, books, and personal expenses.</p>

<p>I think I am going to try to appeal for an additional 4000$ in grants or loans, did anyone try ? I think my reasons would be: my parents only earn 30 000$ per year (in total), my sister still studies in france and my parents have to cover for her expenses. so my parent can definitely pay for 10 000$ per year byt 14 555$ seems a bit tight . what do u think of these reasons ? I mean I did not get the package yet but since u say it is 55 566$ my EFC would be around 14 555 $.</p>

<p>what’s the deadline to give the admission reply ??</p>

<p>I had some health expenses in my family. Have to show those.</p>

<p>hi! sorry i just read this post so it’s kinda late…i gt approx a $47,500 scholarship. this includes employment, grants, loan and scholarship… the cost of attending is $55,566 i think…
lilita: my frnd said sometimes colleges give special scholarships for particular courses, bt i dunno if that applies to MHC. Maybe you should try requesting for more loan? hope it works out 4 u!</p>
