UCSD financial aid for internationals?

<p>I'm an international student who has been living in california for over 7 years. I currently have a E2 visa and have yet to recieve a green card. I will be attending UCSD this year as a freshmen but according to the UCSD's finacial aid policy, it seems to me that there is no way for an international student to receive any sort of fincial aid through the school. (Other than the few scholarship opportunities)
My question is:
A) Do I qualify for in-state tuition rate? (30k as apposed to 50k)</p>

<p>B) Will private loans be my only option in paying for the tuition? Is there any way I can reduce the cost?*</p>

<p>I’m not in California, but man, the UC system is B-R-O-K-E!</p>

<p>It’s hard even for in-state citizens to get UC aid. Don’t take my word for gospel, but I would say that the chance of an international getting aid from a UC approaches zero.</p>

<p>I think you would be considered an international student. You could apply for private scholarships but those are very competitive. The UC’s accept international students because they pay OOS tuition.</p>
