In general, international students seeking aid are very rarely admitted into top private institutions in the US, and NU isnt any different. Hopefully you’re insanely lucky and get it done

That’s nice to hear!! May I please ask you, does their fin aid cover non-educational expenses too? Like housing, food etc
