<p>I am an international student applying to USC.</p>
<ol>
<li><p>I have heard USC doesn't give out need-based financial aid to international students (and is need-aware). Is that correct? If so, there would be no point in checking "yes" for the following question: "Do you intend to pursue need-based financial aid?"</p></li>
<li><p>For the Financial Statement of Personal or Family Support in the Common App (<a href="http://www.usc.edu/admission/undergraduate/docs/Part2_InternationalForm_1516.pdf">http://www.usc.edu/admission/undergraduate/docs/Part2_InternationalForm_1516.pdf</a>), what do I put down in the Yearly amount of support in US dollars? Do I just put down $64761 (the total estimated cost) since I won't be receiving any aid?</p></li>
<li><p>Also, how do I get "documentation of available funds (such as savings deposits, checking accounts, investment portfolios, or a signed bank letter verifying the ability to pay educational expenses)"? What are they looking for?
I'm confused
