how big is the effect of requesting aid on int'l?

Hopkins financial aid was very limited, when my dd applied and was accepted. They didn’t offer her a dime and their price was outrageous. Now for international students, it is even worse! $83K per year!

For financial aid, you need to realize that Hopkins gives you what they THINK you need. Not what you actually may need. My family was not impressed with their financial aid packages.

If you are premed for Hopkins, you do realize that getting into a US medical school will be impossible, right?
