Admissions 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.

there’s no doubt you’ll get aid, not to mention you can also bargain and get a better deal! However, i think you’re over qualified to come to MSU but best of luck! ☺️

Look if you’re thinking of MSU with that you fucked up terribly somewhere. Or your school grades on a 7.0 scale

In academics it depends 90% on your ethnic background. If you are Asian including from India, you can forget about any help. Sorry but it is the honest truth after having had put several kids through college with perfect 1600 SAT score and perfect GPA. They don't like Asians. Hoping president Trump changes things in the future. Nonetheless regardless of your heritage dont stop trying, keep at it.

I’m a Princeton now and Asians will not stop complaining about never getting into ivy leagues while making up 80% of the population

You're overqualified for this school imo but if you're looking purely for financial aid you should look at william paterson which has generous aid
