Spring or Fall?

<p>Hello, I am an international student who currently resides in Mexico. I have been interested in going to a college in the US to major in either Computer Science/engineering or Biology (I want to study Computational Neuroscience as a grad student). I kind of procrastinated the application for this Fall 2014 admission (rather, was too busy studying and doing extracurriculars) and missed most deadlines for the colleges I wished to apply.</p>

<p>Because I did not want to idle around a whole year and wait until the 2015 applications, I wondered if applying for spring 2015 was a viable option. I need to meet a generous financial aid, because my family has a low income (less than 25,000 USD a year). I have taken several tests, and their scores are:</p>

<p>TOEFL: 105
SAT I: 1930</p>

<p>SAT II Math level II: 720
SAT II Chemistry: 700
SAT II Spanish: 780</p>

<p>So, considering my financial aid requirements, should I take a gap year or apply this spring? Do I have a chance to meet a good financial aid? Please help me!</p>
