“Without financial consideration” doesn’t really help. If you get accepted by a school that costs $90,000 a year, or even $60,000, and no financial or merit aid, then how will you pay for your education and cost of living?

So you have two paths (and you can utilize them both):

  1. The very generous schools such as the ones on your list. They will cover all your costs if you’re accepted (but note that not all these are need blind). These schools are also very hard to get into.
  2. Not-so-highly ranked schools which offer generous merit scholarships, such as Alabama, Tulsa, etc. @tsbna44, @fiftyfifty1, @AustenNut and others here can provide recommendations.

These latter set of schools are probably not well known in India, but you’ll have received a solid education.
Keep in mind that given the current job market and immigration policies, it’s unlikely that you’ll get to stay on in the US after graduation.
