NO college meets full need for international transfers and most college don’t admit any if they need financial aid. Berea doesn’t accept international transfers (well, “very rarely”, in other words, basically never).
LACs admit very few transfers; some may admit one with some financial need. You’ll need to apply to a lot of commonapp colleges and it’s not certain at all that you’ll get financial aid even if you
(note that some have March 31 deadlines for Fall 2015, others have April 15 deadlines).
Check out colleges such as UMN-Twin Cities, since they do offer some transfer scholarships to top international transfers (you’d probably have to pay 25-30k even with the scholarship); South Dakota School of Mines; Truman State; Missouri School of Science and Technology.
Check out the financial aid forum for the “low, low cost American universities, 25k all included”.
Do you have family somewhere from which you could commute?
Do you have people you could room with (friends) in NYC - the CUNY colleges are not too expensive, but housing + cost of living is huge (15K tuition but expect 12k just for a room in an apartment you share with many others, plus food, plus $112 for monthly subway pass + all incidentals…) CCNY and Baruch are the best colleges, respectively for science and economics/business, but I don’t know if CCNy has geology.
