<p>international students please list you safeties?????????????</p>
<p>and what would be good safeties for someone with a 1970 sat and good grades and quite good ec's ???</p>
<p>There are no safeties for International student. AND you are NOT an International student. You are a US Citizen. YOU have safeties not us. Look at Illinois Inst of tech and New</a> Jersey's Science & Technology University</p>
<p>Also consider MSU Montana</a> State University and NDSU NDSU</a> - North Dakota State University</p>
<p>i need 100% aid so its not really that easy for me either<okay!</p>
<p>and astronaut j or aJay why are there no safeties for internationals?</p>
<p>But most of the univerisities are need-blind so I dont think you should have a problem</p>
<p>Let me restate my statement there are no safeties for Internationals seeking a full ride.</p>
<p>well yes but they don't give a full ride do they-especially state universities where you are out of state? and with a 1970-you are like stranded -i am not sure any university will give me complete aid-except ohio state ;)</p>
<p>by the way- are you retaking sat- i read somewhre that you got a 1950-so i was curious to know</p>
<p>Yep I will be retaking it. But I have applied to a few colleges already. I have decent ECs to make up for it. I am waiting for my SAT II scores, they should be wonderful hopefully.</p>
<p>r u retaking in december?</p>
<p>Yep, in december.</p>
<p>well me too----another dreaded trip too delhi, and this time i got the other center--not the us embassy that is :(
i so don't feel like taking it again</p>
<p>I am both international confused. Who is international and who is not among you two? I am looking for safety too. I have pretty good stats. Can u suggest me some colleges that give a full ride?</p>
<p>I am afraid, but there is NO SAFETY for an int'l student asking for full aid....this a truth, accept it or leave it, your choice..</p>
<p>now i can ask you isaac- in which college are you?</p>
<p>ayush-
no college will definitely give you a full ride for sure-its all reltive blah blah..
Even for students there,
your best bet would be a second or third tier university.
i have a friend who was studying for the jee-didn't get through.....
he applied to this third tier university in michigan-i forget its name.
he got a full ride and he didn't even give sat-only toefl and his board marks (and he wasn't a citizen either).............</p>
<p>^ Try asking him what college was that, please. :)</p>
<p>I think for us international students safety should be like paying below 7ooo$ or may be around 4-5K. And we don not need to go so further as 2nd or 3rd tier colleges there are colleges where u have to demonstrate to pay 5000$ and they are in the top 100, also 5ooo$ is not a cut off as well.</p>
<p>Shreya: Just know that I am not in any US uni...</p>
<p>So do you mean to say that an international who does NOT need aid can have safeties the same way an American applicant would?</p>
<p>yes sure tetris- since their are very few universities that do offer aid for international students- he has very limited choices.
but for someone paying his way through- he can apply to not so competetive colleges and state universities as safeties.</p>
