Columbia and Brown need-blind for canadian students?

Applying to College

<p>I’ve posted this in the Brown section of the forums, but no responses. I am a canadian citizen but I am attending high school in U.S., have been since 9th. I know that UPenn has the policy that is need blind also for mexicans and canadians, is this true for Brown and Columbia? I looked on Brown’s site, but could not find anything about being canadian citizen (so I’m assuming im considered foreign) If thats the cause, that would suck. Anyone know please respond, thanks!</p>

<p>If you’re a permanent resident of the United States, than it should be need blind for you as well.</p>

<p>I’m not permanent resident as of yet, in about 4 months I will be, I’m currently here under the H-4 visa of my parents. The 4 months thing will suck… I’ll get my green card then which means I’ll probably have to select no financial aid for many colleges to increase my chances.</p>

<p>Thanks for your response B407</p>

<p>Thanks a lot sybbie, I’m still not sure if brown’s need-blind, I’d rather have to pay a bit more then applying to aid and decreasing my chances. I’ll probably call them on monday.</p>
