Like an Ivy league, to be specific my top 2 dream schools are MIT and Stanford.

The acceptance rate for international students at these colleges is in the single digits. This means greater than 90% of international students who apply don’t get accepted. And that includes some students with very fine academics.

If you get accepted to these colleges, your grades will be part of what the colleges consider. Part. Not all. And these grades aren’t what is considered when the calculations for need based aid are made.

Frankly, every single international student should first and foremost have affordable options in their own country…so start there.

For the colleges you named, even U.S. citizens don’t have any guarantees for admission. And you have to be admitted to get need based aid at those colleges.
