Mt Holyoke Finaid for International Students

College Search & Selection

<p>Hi everyone,</p>

<p>I got accepted into Mt Holyoke (Class 2015) with about 50% finaid. The thing is, my dad's job is based on contracts, of which the current one ends in September 2011.</p>

<p>Even with about 50% finaid, the family contribution comes up to about US$26000+ a year, and while this is bearable with a source of income, it'll be a nightmare if my dad were to lose his employment (contract ends and isn't renewed).</p>

<p>The admission for Moho is 'need-aware' or sth like that for intl students, but does anyone know the policy for reconsideration of aid (for intl students). </p>

<p>I know that they say they will take things like loss of employment into consideration, but I want to know if it applies to intl students too, and what are the chances that my request will be accepted (with like $0 income).</p>

<p>Thanks for reading this lengthy msg! :)</p>

<p>That’s something that you should discuss directly with the financial aid office, not a bunch of strangers on an anonymous web forum. In the meantime:</p>
