LACs.... Please help

<p>Hi… Im an Indian student and I require substantial financial aid for my college education. I have already applied to 8 colleges and universities. My counsellor is of the opinion that i should apply to more LACs as they are liberal in their financial aid packages. Now as much as i respect that suggestion, I believe that it has come a bit too late considering that most of the LACs on the list have their deadlines on the 15th of this month and it is not possible (i think) to apply to all of them. This is the list that he gave me. Please sort this list in the order in which i should start applying to them. Please keep in mind:</p>

<p>1) College should have good financial aid package for internationals
2) College should be good in Computer science</p>

<p>This is the list that he gave me:
Macalester
Oberlin
Occidental
University of Rochester (not an LAC … i know… but he says they give financial aid)
kenyon</p>

<p>Denison gives out much better financial aid than Kenyon or Oberlin…</p>

<p>Rochester’s application deadline for merit scholarships, at least for US students, was December 1.</p>
