How can i get a govn't student grant for the Stanford University?

Answer 1

When you apply to Stanford (and most other private universities in the USA) you also submit sets of financial documents. One set of forms - the FAFSA - goes to an agency of the US Government that evaluates you against a standard formula and issues a result that tells how much money your parents can afford to pay (in the government's opinion). This is called the Expected Family Contribution. You must be a permanent resident of the USA to qualify for the government money. US government loans are not given to foreign students.

When the school accepts you for enrollment, they also issue a document that tells how much scholarship money, how much in different kinds of government loans or private loans they are willing to give. At wealthy schools like Stanford, if you are good enough to get in and your family is poor, they are likely to give you quite a lot of money.

The competition for admission is very tough. But if you get in, then you will probably get some kind of scholarship. You will still have to pay a lot, though. Only a very small number of extremely outstanding students get all expenses paid. IT would be more typical that about half the students would get financial aid, and the aid would be roughly about half the costs of attending.

Answer 2

1. Get admitted to Stanford.
2. Apply to the Financial Aid Office.
3. File about 3 pounds of paperwork.

Good luck.
