If your family’s yearly income is indeed $7,200, then yes basically unless they say they don’t, all colleges would waive the fee. All you have to do is check the “fee waiver” box. Then your counselor will see in his/her dashboard a “fee waiver” form to fill out. S/he will check " qualifies for free/reduced lunch" (that means your family’s income is less than $4,303 a month).S/he can add an explanation on a line at the bottom, such as “Yearly income $7,200 - seven thousand and two hundred dollars for a family of five.”)

Some colleges not on CommonApp won’t waiver the fee for internationals. However it’s often because they don’t offer financial aid (or sufficient financial aid) to internationals.

For this level of income, you qualify for Berea College. Only 5% internationals get in, but if you do get in, you get a full scholarship.
