Hello everyone!
Pretty much what the title says, I am looking for different ways to pay for college. One way I am trying is to ask/apply for aid/scholarship from some companies/organizations in the US ( I’ve seen people doing this before). I am an international applying for Cornell University, and from what I learned, Cornell doesn’t seem to give much aid to internationals (both people accepted to Cornell last year in my high school got zero aid). However, one of those two people told me that she got personal benefaction (aka some types of scholarships/aid from some organizations) which pretty much covered the 60k$ Cornell tuition. This kind of pay is not mentioned very often, and I am wondering how does it work? I don’t really know how to start, so I am asking on CC. Please help me if you’ve had experience with asking for aid/scholarship from sources outside university.
Thanks a lot!!!
