What is middle class

#

For you

#

Half of what you listed are public’s

#

Which rarely give aid

zenith mist
#

Ayo! I’m also applying for physics 🙂 maybe UWashington?

median umbra
#

Oh hey rry

#

I didn’t notice the name lol

#

So 10k or under ?

median umbra
#

Some of those schools cost that much per year 😭

#

Like GT OOS is 50k/ year

#

I would say run NPC

#

Of all the schools

#

Bc schools like brown caltech night offer a good amount of aid

#

😭

#

It’s ok

#

Do you have safeties in Canada

#

Usually

#

Just search up net price calculator

#

I’m in AP server

#

Ok

#

So I would say just see the price for the reach schools

#

Also USC will give merit aid

#

If you apply early

#

Actually no thats wrong

#

If you apply early for USC you will have the possibility of being considered for merit aid

#

Do you have a CB acc bc you might be able to just put the schools you’re thinking of on it considering everything I did NPC it said do you want to sign into CB acc

#

Yes

#

Idk 💀

#

Just test it out for one college then see

#

Idk

#

I think in fafsa calculation(won’t matter to you since intl I think) it will probably give you a higher EFC

#

Bc the assumption is since your married you’re not a dependent so you can pay more

#

Oh

#

Then yeah

#

You’re domestic

#

If you have US citizenship

#

For privates all that matters is you’re US citizen

#

For publics you’re gonna be considered OOS for everyone

#

Rip

#

😭

#

If you were cali I would say just do UCs and ASU

#

I believe so

#

Just put something random

#

You can try negotiating

#

I believe most of the reach schools you mentioned like caltech brown meet full need for intls

#

Yeah

#

EA doesn’t give you more aid

#

I gotta go to sleep now

#

Goodbye

#

If ur domestic, try community college and then transfer? It will get ur prices down for sure

#

Dang 💀 ur completely right

zenith mist
#

Have you looked at University of Arizona, MIT, and Columbia (ik you said fewer core classes but it has a great astrophysics program) /any other ivies?

#

Also I would talk to calypso because I believe she is a astrophysics major

zenith mist
#

No no not asu, university fo Arizona but that’s fair

zenith mist
#

Try using Niche rankings to see the physics program at each school! Also, you can ask around on the school’s subreddit 🙂

#

I heard privates might give more aid on average if you’re international? Not sure tho

#

Could I suggest adding more UCs to the target section? All the colleges are pretty decent in physics (bc we have really good engineering faculty)

#

Virginia Tech is pretty good too 😄

#

University of Alabama is known for giving good aid as well

#

As a backup u could do CC in California and transfer to a UC (since they all rank at least top 60 for physics, except Riverside and Merced 💀) if you transfer from CCs the acceptance rate is much higher than applying international

#

Hope this helps!

#

I think everything but Merced and Riverside is rlly good in physics

#

Yes!

#

Btw can I add u 😄 as a friend

#

Oooh
