Are these Universities good enough for an International seeking low contribution? [3.78 GPA, rank 1]
Run the NPC for Louisiana Tech. Here’s what I see. I used 20k annual income, international, 1 kid, 3.75 and 1430. I know they say they not be accurate but. It’s a fine school but not easy to get to.
Maybe you can email to ask if this is true.
But Louisiana Tech says they don’t give need-based aid to international students, and it looks like they also don’t offer merit aid to them.
Can someone with more knowledge post how much in available savings the OP will have to show to US customs to enter the US to attend college? I thought it was one full year of tuition, room and board, as calculated by the college. Does the OP also have to show funds for travel and health insurance?
And can someone confirm that the money needs to be available as cash-on-hand.

Not “cash” but funds available, and they need to show the proof of funds at the consulate to get a student visa. Proof will include evidence of aid or other funding. CBP may ask to see the documentation on entry but by the time the student actually enters the US (cannot be more than 30 days before the course starts) the tuition and housing will probably be paid already. The current page on the Dept of State website says documentation to show “How you will pay all educational, living and travel costs.” Previously it had said one year’s worth of expenses and that is likely to be how they still judge it, but may want an indication of how future funds will be paid (could be renewable aid, proof of recurring parent income such as salary to help pay other expenses, etc):
Evidence of financial ability includes but is not limited to:
- Family bank statements.
- Documentation from a sponsor.
- Financial aid letters.
- Scholarship letters.
- Letter from an employer showing annual salary.
I am working on my other options too.
I have seen france, but they require 1 year of French training and The process is vague.
Thank you.
Maybe - here’s what I used - and here’s where they ask if international. I know you all say you can’t trust = but - grasping at straws. Maybe you can take 2 mins and validate me?
I actually wanted to do 20 good application and the rest 20 be the “Hail Mary”
Australia is great for postgrad scholarships, I’ll look for any undergrad ones.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Yes, I have been focusing too much on admissions. I will have to keep up with my academic track too.
I will mail them, thank you

That’s great. It contradicts what their website says—but hopefully it will work!
Thanks!
