Scholarships and aid for international students
- Is merit considered automatically with the application?UnclearThe page says all full-time undergraduate international students get assistance, but it does not say whether this is automatic with admission or needs a separate application.
- Is admission need-blind for international applicants?UnclearNo page says whether admission decisions consider international applicants' ability to pay, so this cannot be determined.
- Is the CSS Profile or a school aid form required?UnclearThe pages do not mention CSS Profile or a separate international aid form; FAFSA is described only for general need-based aid, so this is unclear.
