Non need Based Financial Aid :(

[knowthename]

<p>I intend to study in a NU in finance/banking or business. I've found some good universities but they only offer non need based financial aid for international students :(
Here's my list:
University of Miami Pace University
Northeastern University Southern Methodist U
Hofstra University Tulane
U Tulsa U Denver
pepperdine
My family can contribute 20-25k$/year. My SAt is 1370 Maths+CR ,TOEFL 94 and my GPA is 8.3/10.
I really don't know if I could afford the fee of these schools or not. And can you suggest need-based or generous universities that fit me
Thanks for your help</p>

<p>Pretty sure hofstra will work out with aid to supplement what you have.for suggestions in business majors I would point you to Ithaca College.Again,you can get enough aid to make up what you have.</p>

<p>It seems like Ithaca College doesn’t offer aid for international students :-<</p>

<h1>Number of enrolled international undergraduates received aid: –</h1>

<h1>Total amount awarded : –</h1>

<p>from college board</p>

<p>^ That just means that Ithaca did not report international financial aid statistics to the Collegeboard. Colleges’ own websites are generally a better source of information on this matter.</p>

<p>

International Students</p>

<p>Financial aid for noncitizens is limited to institutional aid sources, including merit-based awards, need-based grants, endowed and special awards, and campus employment. ALANA Scholarships, MLK awards, and Ithaca Opportunity Grants are not available to international students.</p>

<p>International students applying for need-based assistance for the first time must complete a foreign student financial aid application and a certification of finances form, available from the College’s admission and student financial services offices.

<p>I ve just received november SAT score, it’s 1420(650+770)
I really like University of Miami and Villanova
Is Villanova reachable?
and is UMiami generous in offering aid for international students?
I’m scared of the non need based financial aid. My family can only contribute nearly half of the fees of the NUs in my list =.=</p>

<p>You are going to have to examine each school’s website to see their Financial Aid policy toward international students! Many will state they don’t give FA to Internationals at all or might say it is limited.</p>

<p>If you are willing to pay 20-25k, Northeastern is a really good choice. They award partial aid to internationals which means you will have to pay around 24k…</p>

<p>Pepperdine </p>

<p>

International Students with a minimum 3.9 GPA and a top SAT score are eligible to be considered for our academic award called The Regents’ Scholarship. Traditionally, the award goes to the top 10% of the enrolling class and ranges from $10,000 to $20,000 per year. Students not only need to demonstrate strong achievement, but their admission applications should demonstrate purpose, service, and leadership. No additional application is required; evaluation is automatic upon the submission of the admission application. These scholarships are awarded to Fall applicants only.

<p>You may qualify for a full tuition scholarship at Southern Methodist with your SAT scores. Living cost should not be more than 15k(max. possible)</p>

[knowthename]

<p>thanks a lot confidential2015 but I decided not to apply for southern methodist recently, the total cost is about 50k, too high
my final list: * Drexel U* Hofstra U * Ithaca C * Ohio Wesleyan U* St John’s U (MN)* U Miami* U Richmond* Villanova U* Tulane U
Today I will receive my SAT 2 score, I took the maths 1 and maths 2
the problem is my GPA is TOO low to get into top school and receive merit based scholarship as well :(((</p>
