OK, first of all I am an OOS student for all these universities, so I'll have to pay OOS tuition for all of them. I'm a US citizen, but not in USA atm.
I do prefer living off-campus, or having a single if I'm living on campus.
I plan to do Engineering. Haven't decided which one, but maybe electrical. I might even want to do a double major in something completely different (maybe Government and Political Sciences).
I have not received any outside scholarship.
My stats were very good, was a val, but had low SAT's, so got rejected from all my reaches. what a shame.
The financial aid, I'm being offered is insufficient with around a $25,000 loan.
I preferred CA.
Here are the universities:
GeorgiaTech
UC, San Diego
UC, Davis,
UC, Irvine,
UC, Santa Barbara
Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology
Purdue University, West Lafayette
PennState, University Park,
Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute
University of Wisconsin, Madison
Worcester Polytechnic Institute
I haven't received my financial aid award letters from all of these universities, but I'm not very happy with the ones I have received.
My EFC is $948.00
What do you say.
1. Also after one year, do I establish residency and get to pay in-state tuition in my sophomore year?
2. Which university do you suggest?
3. One last thing, how
Also, what do you say if I move back to USA. (after completing my senior year), spend a year in community college, establish residency, give my SATs again and then apply again to really good uni's.
But thinking about this disheartens me, because a year of mine would be wasted, and I'll be left a year behind. But if that allows me to go to MIT or an ivy then that would be awesome.
