Why do college offer need-based aid to Internationals?

<p>Interestedad,</p>

<p>do you have any information on why, amongst the elite schools, Swarthmore is the only one to deny need-blind admissions to Canadians and Mexicans?</p>

<p>This is an issue for my nephew, who is Canadian and was looking at Swarthmore amongst others.</p>

<p>To the best of my knowledge, the following schools are need blind for Mexican and Canadian nationals;</p>

<p>all 8 Ivies,
Williams
Amherst
Wellesley
Bowdoin
Middlebury
and a few more I'm forgetting, but not Swarthmore.</p>
