There are schools that do meet 100% of need for all international students. Most, however, are need aware for admissions meaning your ability to pay will be considered when you apply for admission.
If a school says they have limited funding for international students, this means one of two things:
- The school provides very limited funding to accepted international students and does not guarantee to meet their full need.
OR
- The limited funding the school that meets full need has will only be awarded to a very limited number of accepted international students...meaning that the school will accept a limited number of international students to use their limited funds for that group.
There are only five colleges that meet full need for all accepted international students AND also are need blind for admissions.
If you tell us the college, we might be able to tell you their policy. Or you can contact them and ask.
