<p>I’m an international student and will graduate in May 2014, intending to stduy Finance/ Banking. My profile is academically good with high grades but ecs are pretty bad. Please suggest some decent schools with strong Finance that can give me a lot of aid, as my parents can only afford 10k a year for my study. Thanks so much in advance.</p>
<p>Vietnamese students are usually very good at academic grades, so you should take part in more ecs. ecs don’t have to be something big or with leadership, given the time you’ve left and your final year with a lot of studying. You just have to join in something that kinda ‘shows that your care about the community around you, not just studying all the time’. I’m in the same case as you, frankly. About schools that give lots of aid, you should take a look at the list ‘40 colleges that change lives’. Those college offer really big amount of aid for int’l students like us. Have you taken the SAT or TOEFL yet?
You’re a Vietnamese?? There’s a lot information: Forum such as Vietabroader or giaoducmy :)</p>
