Hi, I study in India. I just took my SAT's and my scores are:
Total:2030
CR:610
M:780
W:640

I'm taking my subject SAT's in maths and physics in December too.

School scores for 9th grade-74%, 10th - 87 %, 11th - 63 %. I'm expecting at least an 80% for 12th.

I'm looking for a large amount of financial aid, any suggestions as to universities or scholarships i should start applying to for fall 2013 admissions?

Thanks

Not many colleges give out FA to international students. As good as your SAT scores are you probably won't get as much as you were hoping for unless you apply for a need-blind college (eg, The Ivies.) These colleges are very difficult to be admitted to as they're the top 5 so many students from around the world are applying for them. Many students that have amazing stats don't get accepted even though they would have been capable to do the work. Try applying for a 3rd or 4th tier school, you can get a good education for a lot cheaper and because not many internationals apply for them (well not as many as the Ivies) you have more chance of getting FA, remember not all colleges give it so you'll have to research which colleges do. If the one you want to go to doesn't try and get scholarships from outside sources, do a google search and numerous websites come up. Many aren't for a big amount of money but every little helps.
