<p>Hello,
I am a student from India.
My sat score is 2130(780 M,730 CR, 620 W). I am expecting 800 on my SAT subject test in Maths, Chemistry and Physics.
I have over 20 prize winning certificates in high school at various competitions. I am the Head Boy of my school. My GPA is 4. I have been an intern also.</p>
<p>I need financial aid. Should I apply to cornell?</p>
<p>You should definitely apply.</p>
<p>I also think you should apply. However, it depends on which of Cornell’s seven schools you plan to apply to. </p>
<p>What exactly are you asking? Do you want your chances of admission? Or your chances of getting financial aid?</p>
<p>I’d say your chances of each are fair/good, but more info would be welcome</p>
<p>Thanks both of you. Actually I wanted to know my chances of getting financial aid in cornell. I plan to apply for computer engineering.</p>
<p>I got 800 on math level 2, physics and chemistry subject tests. So do I stand a decent chance of getting financial aid at cornell?</p>
<p>Someone correct me if I’m wrong, but I believe that Ivy League schools like Cornell only offer aid on the basis of need, not merit.</p>
<p>In other words, your scores do not affect your chances of getting aid.</p>
<p>I may be wrong, but I think that there are different rules regarding financial aid for international students.</p>
<p>Cornell gives merit aid for internationals</p>
<p>Well then do I stand a good enough chance of getting into cornell?</p>
<p>You’re an average Cornell applicant. It’s harder for Internationals, so it’s difficult to say.</p>
<p>Well I finally applied to cornell.</p>
<p>By the way I got my applicant ID and am not able to view the information. Does anyone know why that may be?</p>
