Can an international student who's not a US citizen choose "Your annual family income falls within the Income eligibility guidelines set by the USDA Food and Nutrition Service" in the common app if he/she qualifies for it?
According to the COMMON APP website.
International applicants may be eligible for the Common App fee waiver. If you meet at least one of the indicators of economic need outlined in the Common App fee waiver question, please indicate so on your application. However, it is up to each individual school to determine if they will accept your fee waiver request. If a school determines you do not qualify for an application fee waiver, they may ask you to pay the application fee after submission.
Good luck.
Here’s the best link I found. In short I believe you are theoretically able to get some but it’s stricter than for domestic applicants.
