0:48
You have to have a separate application for this. And what it covers as a scholarship, it covers your full demonstrated financial need
0:57
What does that mean? we're going to see about that, but first a little bit more about the school
1:03
Well, Cornell University is a very well-known school in the United States, in New York
1:10
not New York City, but New York State. It has 25,000 students, two other scholarship opportunities as well
1:18
It's a very good school. It's an IV school, Ivy League school
1:22
It's like one of the best schools in the United States. And as you can see, in this page, we also have the application
1:28
application tutorial. So if you want to study in this school, you can just follow this tutorial
1:34
from our YouTube channel, which will take you from like literally from zero, like from Google
1:41
right, Google search to the point where you have to pay your application fee. So like, it's a very
1:47
comprehensive tutorial. Anyway, as you can see, we have deadlines here. And then, yeah, as you can see
1:54
we have the tuition fees, which are very high, like $60,000 US dollars
2:01
Like even for the United States it quite high But if you cannot afford this again this scholarship covers your tuition fees And it covers pretty much everything all your demonstrated financial needs
2:15
So anyway, if you want to see the school, again, it's in, let's see, it's in New York State
2:27
As you can see, not in New York City, which is, here and the school is here in the same state. It's around, I believe, like an hour drive
2:39
So it's an old kind of old school. It's a very good high ranking school. Like there are a lot of
2:46
if I remember, there are a lot of like Nobel Prize winners among its alumni
2:53
Like a lot of people know about the school anyway. So yeah, this is the school basically
2:57
and the scholarship, as you can see, it's a financial aid. There are no specific eligibility criteria for this one
3:06
You just need to win an international bachelor student here. Anyway, so if you want to get more information
3:12
you can just click here and go to the universities page. As you can see, they have a page for financial aid
3:19
but like how to apply, et cetera. As you can see, this is like the Cornell's undergraduate admission process
3:27
process is need aware. So like if you need financial aid, right, from the school
3:36
they like consider that with any like many other factors to decide whether they want
3:44
to admit you to the school. And as you can see, it covers 100% of financial needs
3:53
So what you do is basically you go and complete the creative CSS profile
4:00
And like in that census profile, you give a lot of information about your like financial situation, your parents financial situation
4:07
you submit your documents that show your financial situation like how much your family can afford And then they give you a preview aid estimates and then like you get reviewed and offer
4:24
Like, basically, they use your user documents you upload to kind of figure out how much can your family aid you, like how much your family contribute, can contribute
4:38
can contribute to your education and then how much the university would need to cover
4:44
and then they give you an offer based on that. So that's pretty much it
4:49
Basically, if you're a really good student, but you need financial aid
4:55
I mean, Cornell, it's already a very competitive school anyway, but if you need financial aid
5:03
they're also like, you need to have like very good grades and like GPA and scores as well
5:11
So yeah, that's pretty much it. It covers your entire demonstrated financial needs
5:16
Eamon, do you want to add anything about this one? Yeah, so Cornell is a very well-known university
5:28
in the United States. Even if you're not someone who is aware of universities
5:38
in general. There are a lot of pop culture references to this university for some reason
5:44
I see a lot of TV shows where it's mentioned like The Simpsons, the Office
5:49
I think even recent shows like Queen of the South, like there's always a mention of Cornell somewhere and people want to go there or people
5:57
went there. So it's a pretty well-known university. and I think if you just watch American TV in general
6:08
you will hear it somewhere. You will hear you mention somewhere. Yeah, so other than that
6:16
it one of the few universities that are need for international students So not only is it need but it also covers 100 of demonstrated need
6:34
There are a lot of universities that are need-aware, but most of the time, they're not need-aware for international students
6:41
So they're just need-aware for domestic students. and this is one of the very few universities
6:48
that is need aware for international students so there are like four need blind
6:55
and there are there's like a small list of universities that there are need aware
7:01
and I think students should be aware of these universities if they don't have the funds for studying abroad
7:11
so they should look for the list of Needware Universities and then try to apply to those
7:18
They also sometimes offer an application waiver. So if you don't even have enough money to apply
7:27
they are ready to waive the fee of application if you request it
7:33
And sometimes the application is just free. So that's a good starting point for students
7:41
who are just looking for scholarships. but you definitely need to have very, very high grades
7:48
That's the first thing they filter students according to, basically. So the first thing they look at is your GPA
7:58
and if there's a standardized exam that you need to take, they will look at that as well
8:04
So that's a preliminary way to sort the applications, and then they're going to look at your extracurriculars later
8:16
Yeah, so if you're looking for universities to study abroad, you don't have funds
8:23
just try to look for need-aware universities for international students, not just need-of-way
