YES, it will do you a ton of good to apply at the need aware schools without asking for aid. I know people who were good, but not great, getting into Stanford paying full. It does help! so if you can , you should. However, applying for $10000 in aid every year shouldn't hurt you much either. But its best if you aren't in that "international-asking-for-aid" pool which is the most competitive. |
