Can international students get financial aid at University of Arizona or University of Florida? Florida Student Financial Aid

Dancer: State-funded universities are not above all notorious for their generosity with international financial aid. You’d be more likely to find widely available aid to international students at a private school. Here’s the in rank that UF offers on aid available to international students: http://www.ufic.ufl.edu/scholarshipsresources.htm Here’s the somewhat more promising info offered by UA: http://internationalstudents.arizona.edu/erudition Maybe this site will help you – it’s a excellent general site with in rank about international financial aid: http://www.iefa.org/ and here’s another site that has a pretty excellent list of schools known to be above all generous with aid to foreign students: http://www.internationalstudent.com/schools_awarding_aid/ (it’s simple to miss the small drop down box that lets you search by state). I hope one of those sources help you – excellent luck!

you dont need your parents to get financial aid unless you live with them. Hell, if they wont give their info then tell them they can pay it. After all, they are your parents and they owe you an education! If they are too sorry to help you then go out and you can get the aid by yourself. What DID they blow your college fund on anyways…or did they even care enough to save any money for your college at all.Sorry, but your parents have really pissed me off.

If I were you, I would go to a Florida college admissions office and clarify your problem and talk to one of their counselors about that. You might want to call first, for an appointment. You know you’re not the first one this happened to, and they should be able to tell you how to handle the problem. Also read the federal aid attention forms, as they may have an 800 number that you could call to get help with these questions or any others. The counselor would be your best bet, though, because your getting financing is in the college’s interest as well as yours.
