<p>Is anyone else applying as international?</p>
<p>I am:) and I come from Bulgaria. Where are you from?</p>
<p>Canada....</p>
<p>im applying RD from the philippines :D</p>
<p>Are you guys getting interviews?</p>
<p>no, since there's no interviewer in my area.</p>
<p>I am as well. I'm applying international (Korean) And yes I got an interview, it was my last one of the year so I was slacking (my 10th one...nearly shot myself). But then again it's just an interview, so who knows. Good luck all!</p>
<p>How did you get an interview in Korea?????</p>
<p>no no no. I live in Madison, Wisconsin but I have to apply as an international because I am not a US citizen (nor do I have permanent residency). I am here on an F-1 visa with my father who is a student at UW-Madison.</p>
<p>Hi all,</p>
<p>I'm definitly considering Grinnell, so tell my WHY I should apply?</p>
<p>Also, for someone with a 1570 and a 4.0, can I get a significant amount of merit money (Probably not going to qualify for merit aid, but college will be a huge financial burden)?</p>
<p>i'm going to be applying as a transfer.</p>
<p>i am, too</p>
<p>lianapark-
how did the interview go? did you dress up? are you supposed to bring stuff to show them? was your interview on campus?</p>

<p>Grinnell offers a Trustee's Honors Scholarship which is entirely merit based with a maximum amount of $15,000 per year. If you're a National Merit Finalist, Grinnell offers an additional $2,000 per year.</p>
<p>With a 1570 SAT and 4.0 GPA you have an excellent chance of getting merit aid at Grinnell.</p>
<p>Nickelby, I'd be shocked if they don't give you a very nice merit package. My son has lesser stats - and got decent merit aid - but we know a few people who got $14,000. If you don't get the offer you're hoping for, you might try to negotiate. Also, don't overlook that Grinnell's tuition is less than a lot of east coast LACs to start with - so your merit package will go farther.</p>
<p>do you apply seperately for merit aid?</p>
<p>You have to send in a financial aid form.</p>
<p>Is that just for domestic students?</p>
<p>i am applying RD. I am from India</p>
