Location/Region: City/Rural/Suburb? USA or Canada. Preferably not in something too big for an international student lol, but I can adapt.

Major: What would you want to major/minor in? Best would be aerospace engineering, or aeronautical. 2nd pick would be some advanced physics like quantum physics, or astrophysics, etc. Or, 3rd pick being chemical engineering

GPA/Test Scores: No GPA in my country, but I have a general mean around 18/20, with 19,3/20 in math and 19/20 in physics. Also over 19/20 in english, and when I'm lucky even 20/20 on a full semester. No SAT yet, but will probably take this year (still in 11th), let's say I get something like +1500

Curriculum: Basically anything that got a ton of math & physics, if possible related to space, aerospace & engineering. Apart from the classes maybe some chess would be nice, but not mandatory

Size: Don't really care, I honestly don't even know what are the typical USA class sizes

Costs: As low as possible ; travel costs are already terribly high. Basically, if I can't get complete need based financial help I can't go

Schools You're Currently Looking At: Princeton, with the "mechanical & aerospace engineering" major, would be my dream uni. Stanford number 2 and MIT 3. Also looking at most of the other ivies such as Cornell, Harvard

Additional: Must be really low cost or fully covers costs like the ivies, otherwise I'll just be unable to pay the crazy costs of schooling + housing + travel etc. This is also why I'm looking only for the top ones, because if they're not academically better than what I can get in France, there's no real point of going abroad ; if I go to the US, it's only to get something better than France

Because in my country the bare minimum is 1100โ‚ฌ, not including travel cost to the airport that's really far and all the additional expenses

Well I should say that they'll cover what they include in their cost of attendance calculation which a lot will either list travel explicitly or include it in the "miscellaneous fees" category. But I don't know for sure how they calculate travel costs for fin aid purposes per person
