[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]At first instinct I wanted to criticize OP, but why shouldn't OP get a leg up on a full-pay international student? I'm starting to get really conservative on my views on this....[/quote]

Foreigner here. But are you xenophobic, is the real question.

My kids are US citizens and we are ready to pay full price. My oldest got merit aid. My second is still in high school, so we'll see.

Please don't dump on international families, thank you. They bring a diverse cultural viewpoint to American universities and a lot of them pay full price whether it's US tuition or international tuition.

NP. Your kids are not international applicants.[/quote]

They are not, but I take offense at PP's remark that international applicants are somehow less desirable than anyone else. That's hate speech. Since my kids are dual citizens and I do not have American citizenship, I feel targeted. [/quote]
I am the immediate PP. Colleges cap the numbers of internationals they seek to enroll. Chances are lower for internationals, even full pay ones, than for domestic applicants at most selective US schools.[/quote]
