<p>should probably post this in the international students forum if you haven’t already.</p>

<p>Morty welcomes international students. At Williams, he successfully pushed for more scholarship money for international students from countries like China, so that they can afford to study here. In doing this, he upset a lot of university officials and backers, because there’s only so much money that can go around, and more money for internationals means less money for nationals.</p>
<p>^It’s too bad that many people aren’t as open-minded and level-headed as he is. It seems like many people easily forget that as a whole at the undergraduate level, international students contribute way more than they take; these people think the internationals owe them something. Most internationals (undergrads) pay full tuition in just about every school; at NU, >90% of them pay full-tuition. Internationals are not some poor immigrants. Technicly, they “subsidize” some of their American schoomates.</p>
<p>Exactly! Morty really contributed a lot!</p>
<p>Blaze, reaching out to the international community can only increase NU’s global prestige so this is definitely a good thing. Internationals also typically don’t get FA.</p>
