Need-blind schools?

Hey everyone! I've read about need-blind schools, but I'm not sure which colleges qualify as such. Can someone provide a list or some examples of schools that are need-blind in their admission process? Thank you!

Hello! Need-blind schools are colleges and universities that do not consider an applicant's financial need during the admissions process. These institutions aim to ensure that their admission decisions are based solely on a student's merit without being influenced by their financial circumstances.

Here are some well-known need-blind schools in the United States:

1. Brown University

2. California Institute of Technology (Caltech)

3. Columbia University

4. Dartmouth College

5. Duke University

6. Harvard University

7. Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT)

8. Northwestern University

9. Princeton University

10. Stanford University

11. University of Chicago

12. University of Notre Dame

13. University of Pennsylvania

14. Vanderbilt University

15. Yale University

Please note that this list is not exhaustive, and there may be other schools out there that are need-blind as well. Keep in mind that need-blind admission doesn't always guarantee that 100% of demonstrated financial need will be met. You should research the financial aid policies of the individual schools to see if they meet full demonstrated need for all accepted students.

Good luck with your college search and application process!
