Student Financial Aid - Common Financial Aid Misconceptions - International Students

International Students

It is often believed that international (non-citizen) students are never eligible for financial aid. It is true that international students are not eligible for Federal aid. However, many universities provide their own institutional aid for international students (both need- and merit-based).

For example, according to Uni in the USA, "The main source of financial assistance for UK students, after family contributions, will be the university itself."

There are six US universities that provide fully need-blind aid to all students, including international students. These are Amherst, Yale, Dartmouth, Princeton, MIT and Harvard.

Famous quotes containing the word students:

    Teaching Black Studies, I find that students are quick to label a black person who has grown up in a predominantly white setting and attended similar schools as “not black enough.” ...Our concept of black experience has been too narrow and constricting.
