ror: I just noticed that you are international. fwiw: there are less than 10 US colleges that are both need-blind to internationals and that meet full financial need. Many are need-aware for international admissions, but provide full aid if accepted (Stanfor). Others will admit you need-blind, but not offer full financial aid to internationals if admitted (such as Cornell).

Then there is another category, which borders on false advertising IMO. Wake Forest, for example, claims to meet 100% of financial need, but typically does not since it includes outside loans in its formula. Wake does offer merit scholarships, however.
