Melaniesdad…the student is looking for undergrad schools. I would suggest you also read the threads in the link I’m providing below.

In terms of need based aid…you have a couple of things to consider.

1. Some schools that DO give good need based aid to international students are need aware for admissions. This means your ability to pay will be considered when your application is considered. This includes a number of schools that guarantee to meet full need.

2. There are only six schools that are both need blind for admissions AND guarantee to meet full need for international students. They are very selective...accepting under 10% of international students.

What is your SAT or ACT score? And your GPA? You could get merit aid at some schools.

Look at the different threads in this link. You will need to check to see IF these awards are given to international students.
