Need blind colleges?

College Search & Lists

<p>Where can I get a list of colleges that admit need blind?</p>

<p>I’m a CA resident and I’ll apply to the UCs and probably
get into a few of them. I’m looking for 5 private universities
that I can target, preferably in the Top 50 usnwr ranking
national universities.</p>

<p>My goal for the list of 5 is to stretch and get in April:
3 rejections
2 admits with need based financial aid</p>

<p>Recap of my stats:
GPA: 3.6 (uw), 4.0 (UC Weighted)
SAT: CR:650, W: 650, M:780
ACT: 30 (composite)
SAT 2 Math 2C (750), Bio (650)
5 AP’s/CL
EC’s: Average. Football, Community Service, City employment
Essays & Rec: Very good, may not be spectacular</p>

<p>Suggestions?</p>

<p>USC is need-blind. It is in the top 50. Your stats make it a possibility.</p>

<p>Edit to include info that IBclass06 reminded me is important: USC also guarantees to meet 100% of demonstrated need using the CSS/Profile + FAFSA.</p>

<p>Many, if not most, top colleges are need-blind. A list would not be practical.</p>

<p>There is a difference, however, between being need-blind and being need-blind and guaranteeing to meet all financial need. There are far more of the former than of the latter.</p>
