This is a rough list I have:
Purdue
University of Michigan
University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign
UCSD
university of washington
UC, Berkeley
UCLA
NYU
Cornell
UPenn
John Hopkins University
Carnegie Mellon
The list you mentioned about assured admission and affordability are the ones in bold.
Correct me if i’m wrong, but I believe Ivy leagues are need blind, and have an amazing rep for financial aid - with international students too. This makes me doubt that the actually tuition for such schools would actually add up to $80,000 per year.
Could you chance me on the list above and/or answer my question on the extracurricular I wasn’t sure on in my first post?
