<p>So I did a tremendous amount of research that I basically have heard of all colleges in U.S. no kidding. But what's wrong with me, I can't find ones that fit me.... Deadlines are approaching, oh guys please help me...</p>

<p>I am applying for sure...</p>

<p>Princeton RD
University of Washington (Honors maybe)
Berea college</p>

<p>I am an Korean international student but residing in the U.S.
My parents are missionaries,
so I looked up christian schools for possible financia aid,
but not many christian school gives aid to int'ls</p>

<p>Major doesnt matter, but oneday I'll be a mdical missionary
so I want a school with a strong science and research opp.</p>

<p>considering that i am a newcomer to this country,
I am doing a fabulous job in school. IB student, 3.87 GPA
My SAT score is not so bright though..</p>

<p>M 730
R 600</p>

<p>and for SAT II's I wanna kill myself</p>

<p>Chem 540
math IIC 690
Korean 790 (i don't know why i took it.....) </p>

<p>Good EC's and community service.
University of Washington would be my safety.</p>

<p>This is a great link (posted by woebegone on a different thread):</p>

<p>It's a great resource to start your search if fin aid is your priority. After you have compiled a list of colleges that will offer need-based aid, then you can try to find out more about them to see which fit your academic/professional interests. Good luck!</p>

<p>Yeah you definately need to get your scores up, if you want to have a chance at those Ivies</p>

<p>Does University of Washington have finaid for internationals???</p>

8

<p>If they offer, not much... maybe he confuses it with Wustl</p>

<p>Does wustl offer money for internationals? I thought that they are not even need blind. maybe. I dunno. Some girl here on this post got into UPenn with lower scores than you, and UPenn is needblind, so I say ask her how she did it and go for it.</p>

<p>UPENN is not needblind for internationals.</p>
