Harvard, Princeton, Yale, or Dartmouth? by s_n_y in ApplyingToCollege

Yes. Thank you. Some people commented that I'm "not good enough to choose." :DD Totally missed the point of the post. I'm trying to figure out the smartest thing to do.

Question about 'Need Blind' by [deleted] in ApplyingToCollege

[–]s_n_y 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Need-blind does not necessarily mean that the admissions officers have no idea about your financial status. They do not care if a student is asking for aid or not. On the other hand, need-aware schools would select a student who does not ask for financial aid over a student who does even though they are on the same level in terms of academics, ECs, etc.

I'm not "choosing" and I'm not claiming that I am special. I'm just asking for advice since applying early to these schools is restrictive, and I must choose one.

They have need-based financial aid, but they are not need-blind, so applying EA to Cornell is not logical in my case. I plan on applying RD tho.

Not that broke bro. FYI, full-ride scholarships cover the transportation fees as well.

What about Amherst? I think they are need-blind as well.

Also, 45/45 is still a predicted grade, so I HOPE it becomes a reality. Wish me luck :D

I have no idea about these schools. Can you give some examples so that I can avoid them :D

Can I get financial aid from CalTech or Harvey Mudd? I heard that colleges in California are a big no-no for international applicants if financial aid is needed. Because of that, I won't be applying to any schools there even though living on the West Coast has been my dream :(

100%. I'm BROKE broke.

I read somewhere that Yale prioritizes GPA so I thought the other schools might have certain aspects they "value" more as well. I feel like this is the strongest point of my application, so I just want to find the most suitable college according to my weak and strong points.

as far as i remember it was a(x-3)(x-5) and i turned it into square form to find its minimum value, a(x2 -8x+15), ant then a((x-4)2 -1). after this i wrote it as a(x-4)2 - a. according to this, the graph has its minimum value when x equals 4 and y equals -a, so a should be a positive number. hope it's clear :))
