<p>Things are different for international students, that’s for sure. UR is need-aware for internationals ([International</a> Students - Financial Aid - University of Richmond](<a href=“Financial Aid - University of Richmond”>Financial Aid - University of Richmond)). </p>
<p>The good news is that UR is budgeting more for scholarships this year than last, and the rate increased faster than tuition,so that’s a positive. Your academic credentials are strong, as you are finalist, but needing “loads and loads of aid” will hurt. If you do get in though UR will meet 100% of your demonstrated aid.</p>
