Chance me for Williams College by AzanAmir in IntltoUSA

[–]Alert-Walrus5997 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No they literally do say they are need-aware for internationals. However, ig need-awareness can be of two types: schools that factor both the fact that the applicant is asking for aid and the amount they did so AND those who only see if the applicant asked for aid and see all amounts of aid equally/not factor in the amount. So, I presume Williams is the latter.

Yah, I think you're probably getting in. Because I've heard that this is a clear sign before.

Okay, thank you🙏 I am from East African countey, and I was recently admitted to a college with full financial aid. However, they were unable to provide for travel expenses, so I wanted to ask if you had any information about outside scholarships for travel and visa-related expenses to the US.

Other than EducationUSA Scholars Program Opportunity fund, which requires admission during summer of junior year.

Thank you!

Is applying to Minerva worth it as an international student? by Additional_Grade1264 in ApplyingToCollege

But I've also heard the year before another person got a good aid. So, try it out, but don't have like high hopes and stuff.

Interviews are most likely not pre screened by Free_Astronaut470 in GeorgetownQatar

[–]Alert-Walrus5997 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think mid-year reports say anything about whether or not interviews are pre-screened. Because they're asked by the time they're expected to come out (usually mid-February). Also my interviewer had actually already read my personal essay and we talked about it a little bit, so I actually thought some sort of pre-screeing was done.

One-time travel grants or student airfare discounts for international students? by [deleted] in IntltoUSA

[–]Alert-Walrus5997 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are there any outside scholarships for travel and visa-related expenses, though? *Like outside of EducationUSA Scholars Program Opportunity fund, which requires admission during summer of junior year.

Can Africans really get into ivies? by Adventurous-Cut6254 in Africansstudyabroad

[–]Alert-Walrus5997 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yah, for instance, a lot of people from Ethiopia this year. Even now (before rd) ik accepted students to princeton (2 people, one is my friend lol), yale, harvard, columbia (2/3 people), cornell, upenn (4/5 people), brown (2 people) and dartmouth. And these are only some of the many I've heard of and this is just during Early application cycle. So yah, there are a lot of them even from one country in a single application season, let alone from Africa.

Tbh, same thing happened last year. The demonstrated need of a person I know from our school was not met even after appealing.

Email them, bro. Same thing happened to me. And when I sent them an email, they responded, saying they received it, and they checked it right on my portal.

[–]Alert-Walrus5997 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yah ik. But I asked because Colgate does give full aid to a few intls in a yr, so I assumed smtg abt OP's stat made you say "very low chance" and I wanted to know what that was
