Hi

I am an international applicant and indicated I needed need-based financial aid from need-blind schools (namely Ivy’s) but now realize I really don’t. This is not to sound pompous but even if I took the time to fill in the CSS and individual school forms, I would probably not get any aid, better to let another student who needs it more take it.

But should I call the schools to let them know I don’t need aid anymore, or should I just leave it since they are “need-blind” they won’t know whether or not I submitted the financial aid or not?

And if I do call, do I call the financial committee or the admission committee?

Thanks!
