It does seem really tough for intl student, applying ED and requiring fin. aid. I require substantial aid (like 80%) and just wondering is it wise for me to apply ED to need-aware schools i.e. Upenn/Columbia, particularly if the fin. package doesnt meet my need fully or is full of loans? I’m still confused about how universities calculate your ‘demonstrated needs’ - my family owns no asset besides the house we live in, so the house doesnt really count since they dont expect my fmailyto sell the house to fund my edu, eh?

Hope someone can clarify, thanks! And I hope more accepted intl will get a chance to post their stats soon :)
