Is an international student out of the question for scholarships?

Paying for College
1

<p>I am one of the case. My dad applied for AOS last year, but he shouldn’t get anything back in time before I apply for colleges. Since I am not eligible for financial aid, what can I do to earn scholarships essential to save my life? One of the colleges I’m looking is UC Berkeley. I will be applying from out of state as a non-resident/international depending on the situation. How can I afford the college of my choice?</p>

<p>it took me 2 seconds to google this [Financial</a> Aid Grants and Scholarships](<a href=“http://ihouse.berkeley.edu/l/aid.html#intl]Financial”>http://ihouse.berkeley.edu/l/aid.html#intl)</p>

<p>there is a sticky at the top of this forum about FA for international students</p>

<p>WOW! I found the link useful. So what’s an international house?</p>

<p>Did you read the history and all the links on that page already??</p>

<p>It’s better to try for private colleges if you are an international student (even if you are a need-based financial aid candidate). Harvard, Princeton, Yale, Dartmouth, MIT, Williams, Amherst, and Middlebury extend their need-blind admissions policy to international students. I was in a situation similar to yours, and I got into one of those schools. Best of luck to you!</p>
