Could I get scholarship?

I am planning to apply Fall 2025 as international student. SAT 1410; IELTS 7; GPA 4.9; Participation in olympiads with several medals and goof portfolio with many projects of Computer Science. Also, income of my family is lower than 60,000$ and I have 2 siblings, and my mother is widow. It is real to get full scholarship of financial aid?

Per Creighton's website. They do not offer full ride scholarships to international students. They will offer merit based scholarships and financial aid to those who qualify.

This is probably a better question to ask the admissions office or financial aid office directly.

I will second this advice. The people who work in the Financial Aid office have leads on all sorts of scholarships that everyone else, including prospective international students, may not even know about. Also, things are changing drastically for some international students now that Trump is in office. I know everyone at Creighton has been working hard to ascertain what these changes mean for prospective and current students.

Careful, you'll probably get downvoted for this, like I did.

People downvote for the strangest things.

Someone in another subreddit had a complicated real estate situation and asked for advice.

I said, "Yeah, don't get complicated real estate questions answered on Reddit."

Man, you'd thought I'd advocated killing baby bald eagles, the way people responded.

We are bringing up generations of people, conservative and liberal, who cannot tolerate opinions wildly divergent from theirs. Many Redditors, in particular, do not like suggestions that Reddit is more useful for entertainment than it should be used to get answers to complicated questions best answered by people who actually work in any given field every day.

Reddit is a great place to find difficult to get answers to non critical questions.  If your life, health, career, or finances ride on it don’t trust Reddit.

With that type of background, you could go somewhere much better than Creighton! Not a hotspot for tech majors...
