<p>*SAT- 2040( 670 cr, 710 maths, 660 writing)</p>
<p>**I am applying for quite a hefty amount of financial aid **and my current list of colleges are:
Colorado College, Bates College, Bard College, Colgate University, Bowdoin, Occidental and the University of Rochester.*</p>
<p>Ok…you’re an int’l. </p>
<p>Do you know what the FA policies are at these schools for int’ls? Do they give little aid or do they give BIG aid?</p>
<p>Are they “need aware” - are they less likely to admit you if you need a lot of aid?</p>
<p>What is your major?</p>
<p>I think you need to apply to a couple of financial safety schools that will give you big merit for your stats.</p>
<p>Keep in mind that for need-based aid, you must demonstrate need. They are going to look at all your family income and assets. </p>
<p>How much will your parents pay?</p>
