Location/Region: Anywhere atp 😭 I'm a student in the Philippines and I used to think I had somewhat of chance getting in somewhere and now realizing I'm cooked

Major: Accounting/Finance

GPA/Test Scores:

93/100 (11th grade 1st sem)
95/100 (11th grade 2nd sem)
I'm not gonna be taking any tests like the SAT because it's just not accessible to me rn. The nearest testing center is 4 hours away by car plus kinda expensive :/ My school also doesn't offer APs or IB but I am currently in an academic track that specializes in Accountancy and business management (ABM)
I did take the practice DET tho and got a 135-140 so there's that. Planning to take the actual test when I have the money

Curriculum: It'd be nice to get into an active school. Very much looking forward to events and stuff that can teach me decently and give me practical experience. If I'm lucky maybe even some industry connections and exposure

Size: I honestly don't care as long as I get in but maybe medium-ish is good?

Costs: I AM BROKE ASF I'll be needing a miracle when it comes to aid and scholarships. Pigs flying kinda miracle. I only have 10k in the bank rn and i doubt that could keep me alive. Parents are both unemployed/have unstable job, plus they earn like less than 300 dollars per month

Schools You're Currently Looking At: NONE I doubt I have a chance of getting in so I'm rlly scared to look

u get direct/ guaranteed admission to IU Kelley school of business if u have like a 1400 SAT & 3.8 unweighted GPA. It’s a good safety & a top 10 biz school undergrad

#

Every other top 10 program (Ross, stern, etc) r much more competitive and definitely a reach for anyone. Ivies as well

and he is an international student requiring aid so any publics are out of the question

#

i would apply to the needblind schools for intl students but these schools are extreme reaches for everyone, intl or not

#

urochester has a merit aid fund for intl students as well so i would look at them

@wooden ginkgo reading over yo6u chat I thought you meant that all intl students dont have access to SATs, not solely him in the Philippines. I misunderstood your message then.
