Last I heard, if your self-financed you can get into alot(Not all!) of universities.

If you are a self-financed applicant, you will be pretty much a shoe in at all schools except for Ivys, MIT, Stanford, Top LACs.

<p>I doubt that's true but I cant say for sure. Anyone got stats on what % people apply for aid each year? Money isnt the only factor if you're paying full fees (not donations, of course) I think it's mostly based on your qualifications.</p>

<p>lol rushil...</p>

<p>however i still really dunno wat to do...GaTech was my first choice as well...anyways for it to work out now we'll hv to use the 24 hour rush report-thats $300...</p>

<p>Why didnt u give the SAT again?</p>

<p>

well u know what it was also pretty high on my list but how in the world can anyone take this non-sense!! i guess it says something abt the college....they just can't suddenly change their system...what about the students who have no access to the internet...they would have been informed by mail and everyone knows how much time that takes...also as everyone has noticed the instruction for external evaluation was mentioned in a little corner of their website and wasn't prominent at all...if they were that serious abt external eval they should have made a seperate application for intels...why the hell did they accept our school marks in the application at the first place??</p>

<p>yeah ur right about that dexter...</p>

<p>Hi guys!</p>

<p>A few days ago somebody mentioned International University Bremen and I really think you should give it a look at least. You may like it very much. I can't tell you more about it right now as I should return to my desk and study in this very moment but I post the link here. I really think it is worth considering IUB.The website is also very well structured and you will no problem in finding all the relevant info there. </p>

<p><a href="http://www.iu-bremen.de%5B/url%5D"&gt;www.iu-bremen.de&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p>

<p>IUB is good I think, but then it's in Germany... one needs to be really adventurous to venture to a country where you know nothing much about it. It's not the same for US! Thanks to shows like Desperate Housewives, Amazing Race and such programs, we are sort of more used to US cultures I guess.</p>

<p>thanks irina and kenyon for ur opinions...how do u view NUS(National Univ of Singapore)???</p>

<p>All I know is that my counsellor said that it's hard to get into and they really look at your SATS. So I think 1700s is a bit too low for NUS, but I'm not too sure abt it.</p>

<p>madness. u can apply 4-5 more schools with 300 bucks! dis tells alot about the administration at GaTech...</p>

<p>wasup: Why didnt u give the SAT again???</p>

<p>i couldnt...dates had passed...had to take SAT II also...</p>

<p>guys...nther query here....is it possible to get a co-op programme at GaTech and purdue at the start of the course???</p>

<p>no...i dont think its possibe at GaTech...they require ur first semester grades and GPA..</p>

<p>@wasup u r still hoping to get into gatech??....or have u sent them the external eval??</p>

<p>dexter...i hvnt sent that eval...i asked my counsellor to email them tho...dunno if that wud work but yeah chances r close to zilch...lol</p>

<p>man, u seem like a great student. U shouldda give the SAT a long time ago.</p>

<p>thanks MM...</p>

<p>do intels get scholarship at purdue???</p>

<p>btw MM ive been offered admission to NUS with schol...</p>
