[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No Ivy League gives Merit Aid. Unless it is a specific scholarship. They all are either need blind or need aware.

Either way, if you from the UK and applying to Ivies, you better make under $150k a year to get a kind of significant need based aid as a foreigner. And even then, unless your income is less than 60 tr 80k then you might as well use the UK system at £9.3k per year….[/quote]

Pretty sure you can't get aid for financial reasons FAFSA as a foreigner [/quote]

That is 100% INCORRECT.

You absolutely can.[/quote]
You can get financial aid, but not through FAFSA. FAFSA requires your SSN, which foreigners don't have.[/quote]

When I first arrived in Dc in January 2009 as a Brit with only a VISA I was sent to the SS office and our entire family were given SSNs.[/quote]
When you arrived, yes. Not before.[/quote]

If you've met any families like mine, we travel a lot, we live in a lot of different places. I am in the UK now and I have full US citizenship as well as my SSN. One of my kids could apply from here to the US and not have the constraints you are claiming on us "foreigners".[/quote]
