From India to an Ivy League University with a 100% Tuition Scholarship

Hi guys! In this video I will be interviewing a student who went from India to an Ivy League University with a 100% Tuition Scholarship. Nitya is an incoming freshman at Dartmouth College for CS + Philosophy - and in this video she helps break down financial aid for international students, how to apply for it, and how to standout from a resource-deprived background to the best of your abilities.

Scholarships for IB Schools Nitya recommends:
Greenwood gives scholarships for 11th-12th if you personally enquire the admissions rep via phone/ in person visit

Indians are perfect bargainers. Whether it be sabji vaala or an Ivy League, we will *always* get a bargain.

Wow! CS + Psych is sooo interesting, Indian universities truly should give us blended subject options!

PS: I started the SDD (Sleep Deprived Dreamers college essay course) course and for everyone who's still not sure abutt it, I say don't take another minute, go and do it. It's worth every penny.

Sneezing shaurya.😂 Its ok to be normal.

[dhimtachowdhary]

It was sweet when she said “right” after everytime Shaurya asked her a question

[omdesai]

Thanks shaurya for uploading videos frequently and keeping me inspired😊

[lalitayadav]

👏👏 wow !! Very informative!! 30% hang here!!

The girl is genius - She Just said one thing wrong - Don't ever use the word negotiate in front of your AO, they will literally throw you out or grab someone from the waitlist who fits that aid offered -- you can't do that until you are a grad student. You can only compare your package to other schools that offered you more and see What is difference between the EFC that they considered. YOU CAN ONLY DISCUSS IT AND MAKE SMALL CHANGES IN EFC....retired MIT admission officer told me this

[vivaanbanerjee]
