Most Colleges'"Need-Blind" Policies Do Not Include Foreign Students.
Rubin, Amy Magaro
Chronicle of Higher Education, v43 n40 pA37-A38 Jun 13 1997
Many colleges and universities that guarantee financial aid to all Americans, regardless of need, admit they do not do so for applicants from abroad. Policy variations confuse many foreign applicants and frustrate some educators. Some institutions try to direct available aid to foreign students from less-developed countries. Harvard University (Massachusetts) and Massachusetts Institute of Technology guarantee aid to all. (MSE)
