- Is admission need-blind for international applicants?UnclearNone of the pages say whether admission decisions ignore international applicants' ability to pay, so need-blind status cannot be determined.
- Is the CSS Profile or a school aid form required?UnclearA Student Financial Statement is required to issue the I-20, but that is visa financial proof rather than an aid application; CSS Profile is not mentioned at all.
