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:

    A complacent old Don of Divinity
    Used to boast of his daughter’s virginity:
    “They must have been dawdlin’,
    The students of Magdalen—
    It couldn’t have happened at Trinity.”
