I am confused about whether you are average or top 10%. If you are top 10% there is a very small chance you could get accepted to a top college that gives you enough aid. If you are average, you need to look elsewhere.

In the US, the colleges that give good aid to internationals are the ones that are the best in the country. This is why competition is so fierce for those schools. As you go down the rankings, admission gets easier but financial aid gets worse. Most public universities only give aid to students from their own states. Students from out of state or international usually pay full costs without aid. Some colleges have scholarships, but even at publics those are only for top students. You are not going to find a lower ranked school that will get your costs down to $8k.
