The Indian Thread (TiT) # 14

<p>yeah… I’m from Delhi…
G.D Goenka Public School… Sciences…</p>

<p>Applied to Stanford, UCB, cornell, georgiatech, UIUC, UCLA, UTAustin, Michigan, carnegie mellon… So far got acceptances from georgiatech and UIUC
Applying for ECE (Electrical and Computer Engineering)</p>

<p>I am technically a US citizen (born there, lived there) but currently am in India… (family is Indian)</p>

<p>cool… best of luck for ur decisions :)</p>

<p>hey cool…u got into gatech…did u send the external eval??</p>

<p>radhika, aid situation at IUB is good except that they have a large loan component (total around 16,500 euro after three years + compund interest at 7.5%).</p>

<p>But you will always be able to attend becuase admission is need-blind and they provide full aid. If you apply early enough and your app is strong, they might even remove your loan and give you additional scholarship/grant so you will have no loan either.</p>

<p>That said, the aid covers tuition+food+housing but does not cover books and other personal expenses. In practice you have to spend a minimum of 1000-2000 euro/yr from your side, even though the official minimum contribution will be like 250 euro/year or something.</p>

<p>In any case, don’t hold yourself back because of finaid, because overall it’s great.</p>

<p>yeah, I sent gatech external evaluation from JSinly… That was part of their admission requirements</p>

<p>when do u really call early for IUB…and what are their priorities for admission…the app dealines and stuff</p>
