Thank you for your help!

While most international students cannot receive U.S. financial aid, they may be eligible in certain situations. Many colleges may still ask international students to complete the FAFSA. You should contact a school's financial aid office and use scholarship search tools like InternationalStudent.com to find out about scholarships awarded by colleges and universities in the U.S.

You should look for scholarships open to all students rather than just U.S. citizens and permanent residents, as well as carefully review requirements, such as test scores, essays and additional materials like videos or letters of recommendation.
