International financial aid: How many do they take?

<p>Thank you very much for that info! =)</p>

<p>Do you perhaps also know the answer to this?</p>

<p>I want to apply to Stanford but don’t get how it works with the aid (or loans?!) for internationals.</p>

<p>I know that need-based money for international applicants is very limited.</p>

<p>Assuming the following:</p>

<p>1) I were to qualify for an offer and money was the only limiting factor.</p>

<p>2) Other international applicants, who have a stronger application, receive the available need-based money.</p>

<p>–> the following international students get accepted straight away: the ones, who could be awarded need-based money and the ones, who could pay for themselves.</p>

<p>What happens to the other international applicants?
Do they get declined straight away due to insufficient funding or do they get the offer to attend using a loan instead of grant money?</p>

<p>Thank you very much for your help.</p>
