The trouble is, the most prestigious schools tend to be the most selective schools. They also tend to be the richest schools with the most money for financial aid … but that won’t help you if you cannot get in. If you have good affordable safeties in your own country, then fine, you can focus on the most selective US colleges. Otherwise, you should add a few colleges that are less selective, yet still have fairly generous aid to international students.
Possibilities:
Bates, Colorado College, Macalester
Hampshire, Occidental, Skidmore
