<p>Is it true that if you apply for financial aid/scholarships your chances to get into the concerned Univ decreases?</p>
<p>if you are an international, and the school is not need blind , your chances will decrease. There are only 8 univ. that are need blind to internationals i think… They include Harvard and a couple more. So if you are not applying to those, your chances may go down because the univ. have limited funds for internationals. However. if you are an international not requiring aid a lot of colleges will jump at the opportunity to take you because of diversity.</p>
