Chance me to T20-30 [international, 4.0 UW, 1470 SAT, business admin/finance, need full ride]

near 0% - most of the schools that meet need and are need blind don’t have business. These are:

Amherst - no business admin

Bowdoin - no business admin

Brown - has a business, entrepreneurship track

Dartmouth - no business admin (has a mini program)

Georgetown - has business/finance

Harvard - no business admin

MIT - has business/finance

Notre Dame - has business/finance

Princeton - no business admin

W&L - has business/finance

Yale - no business admin

You will likely not get into any of these - even with a 1500. W&L is your best bet in my mind as it has the Johnson Scholarship, which 10% or so of the admitted class gets each year.

There are other meets needs schools. But note - just because you want a full ride doesn’t mean a school will agree with your need desires - meaning they decide, you don’t decide.

But I don’t think you’ll get into any - sorry to say. There are other schools need aware but meet need for international - Cornell to F&M to more - but if you truly have full need, they are unlikely to be willing to invest in you. They factor your need into their decisions.

So the schools above won’t look at your finances in regards to admission and I imagine W&L is your best bet - but for full ride, I don’t see any happening. If you said, I can spend $25-30K a year, there are solid (but not top) programs that will accept you.

Education has a cost for most every student - and you’ll be in that boat to come to the US most likely.

Good luck.
