Scholarships and aid for international students
- Is merit considered automatically with the application?UnclearThe pages only say merit awards are 'competitive'; they do not say whether students are considered automatically with the admission application or must apply separately.
- Is admission need-blind for international applicants?UnclearNo page says whether admission decisions for international students take ability to pay into account, so this cannot be determined.
- Is the CSS Profile or a school aid form required?UnclearNo page mentions the CSS Profile or a separate international aid form; only one individual scholarship mentions a 'Financial Support Form', which is not enough to conclude.
