US universities offering scholarships to international students?

Does anyone know which US universities are known for offering generous scholarships to international students? I'm trying to narrow down my options and it would be great to know about any schools that are particularly supportive financially.

Absolutely, there are several US universities that have a reputation for providing robust financial aid packages to international students. Let's discuss some of them:

1. Harvard University: Harvard uses a need-blind admissions process for all applicants, and they remain committed to covering 100% of each student's demonstrated financial need, including international students.

2. Yale University: Similar to Harvard, Yale is also need-blind and meets 100% of demonstrated financial need for all admitted students, including internationals.

3. MIT: MIT has a need-blind policy and meets full demonstrated need for both its domestic and international students.

4. Dartmouth College: Dartmouth has need-blind admissions for international applicants and commits to meeting 100% of demonstrated need for all admitted students.

5. Princeton University: Princeton does offer need-based aid to international students. In fact, Princeton is known for its “no loans” policy, where financial aid packages consist entirely of grants and work-study, requiring no student loans unless the student chooses to take them.

6. Amherst College: Amherst College provides need-based financial aid to international students. As part of their financial aid commitment, their awards do not require repayment.

7. University of Chicago: The University of Chicago provides need-based aid to international students. They are committed to ensuring that admitted students can cover attendance costs via grants, scholarships, and a small work expectation.

Please note that for these colleges, “need-blind” means the school makes admissions decisions without considering your financial situation, and “meets full demonstrated need” means if you get accepted, the school will offer you a financial aid package sufficient to cover the cost of attendance minus your expected family contribution.

While this list is not exhaustive, these schools may be worth considering in your college application process. It's also important to remember that obtaining scholarships in the US as an international student can be competitive, so make sure to put your best foot forward in the application process!
