<p>I’m a rising senior from Canada, and I’m applying to a couple Ivies and AWS, most of them needblind towards international students. However, my family income is 200 000+. Should I even bother asking for financial aid?</p>
<p>will your parents ever have 2 kids in college at the same time? </p>
<p>Are your parents expecting or needing you to get aid? If so, then you’ll need to apply for aid just to see.</p>
<p>If you’ll be applying to schools that are “need aware” for int’l students then you may not want to apply for aid at those schools.</p>
<p>What is AWS? Is that a Canadian school?</p>
<p>Do your parents have a lot of assets as well?</p>
<p>I believe AWS stands for Amherst, Williams, & Swarthmore</p>
<p>for your choice of schools, they are need blind for Canadians mostly. nothing to lose if you apply for aid, though i doubt it if you will qualify. You should be thankful that your family can afford.</p>
<p>IMaGecko…thanks…LOL…I should have known that. I was trying to think of a Canadian school with those initials!</p>
<p>Yeah, I’m an only child as well, and we are fairly stable financially…thanks for all the input! I don’t think I’m going to apply for aid. However, do all students need to give the schools a financial statement anyway?</p>
<p>You might to get a visa.</p>
