<p>I think you have a good chance, if you have about $50K/year to pay COA(That assuming you get a $10k scholarship). FA is not available to international students.</p>

<p>I think the work experience will probably seal the deal…you’re applying out of high school right, so you’re 18?</p>

<p>artloverplus is completely wrong.</p>

<p>Financial Aid IS available to international students, they just take it into consideration when you apply. I’m international and was accepted with FA to cover approximately 95% of my costs.</p>

<p>“Underrepresented minority” status is conferred to American applicants only. You’ll be applying as an International. BTW: remember, do NOT send 4 bosses’ rec letters. Only the best one.</p>
