美國大學學費很貴，比國內大學高出很多。不過，去美國讀大學，也有不少獎學金和經濟補助可以申請。那麽，美國大學的經濟補助壹般如何申請呢?為此，以艾莫利大學為例，為大家做這方面的介紹。壹起來看看吧!
國際學生經濟支助
艾莫利大學致力於組建國際化的優秀大壹學生班級。鑒於這壹宗旨，學校每年都為國際學生提供有基於需求的經濟支助。同時，學校鼓勵國際學生通過艾莫利大學獎學金項目申請基於優秀的獎學金(申請截止日期是11月15日)。
In order to be considered for a need-based financial assistance, international students need simply apply under our Regular Decision plan. An international student is considered a student who is NOT a U.S. citizen and NOT a U.S. permanent resident. Students who hold F1, F2, J1, J2, or G series visas or other eligible non-citizens (humanitarian parole, Cuban-Haitian Entrant, refugee status, asylum) are considered international students. Please note, these are a few of the many visas and immigration categories we work with in the admission process.
為了申請到基於需求的經濟支助，國際學生只需要在定期決定計劃下申請。國際學生指的是非美國公民或非美國永久性居民學生。持有F1、F2、J1、J2、G 系列簽證的學生或其他有資格的非公民(人道主義假釋、Cuban-Haitian進入者、難民身份、庇護)，被視作國際學生。請註意，這些只是學校在申請審理過程中要處理的簽證和移民類型的壹小部分。
International students who apply for need-based financial aid will be reviewed as a separate cohort of applicants. In our admission process, we must be ?need-aware? for international students. This means that when reviewing applications from students who are not citizens or Permanent Residents of the United States, Emory University takes into account whether or not an applicant has requested financial assistance. As a result of this need-aware approach and the limited funds available to international students, Emory?s admission rate for international applicants requesting need-based financial aid is notably lower than the rate of acceptance for those students not requesting aid. Because of this, we advise students to apply for financial aid only if they do not have the resources to fund their education, and to complete the financial aid form as accurately as possible.
對於申請基於需求的經濟補助的國際學生，學校將其作為單獨的申請人類型來審核。在審理申請的過程中，學校必須要意識到國際學生的需求。這即是說，在申請非美國公民或非美國永久性居民學生的申請的時候，艾莫利大學會考慮申請人是否申請經濟補助。這樣壹來，由於學校的註重需求的意識和有限的可供國際學生利用的基金，艾莫利大學申請經濟補助的國際學生的入學比率明顯低於不申請經濟補助的國際學生的入學比率。鑒於此，學校建議學生只在無力支付學費的情況下才申請經濟支助，並且盡可能地將經濟支助表填寫準確。
International students are only eligible for financial aid if they apply for support during the admission process. Students who are certain they will need financial aid at any point during their years at Emory College must apply for financial aid during the admission process. Only those students who apply for and receive financial aid for their freshman year will be eligible to receive financial assistance in subsequent years.
國際學生只在招生期間申請支助，才有資格申請經濟補助。確信自己在艾莫利大學學習期間都需要經濟補助的學生，必須在招生期間申請經濟補助。只有申請並在第壹學年享受到經濟補助的學生，才有資格申請接下來幾年的經濟補助。
International students receiving financial aid from Emory College must plan to contribute funding towards their educational expenses. For example, students will be responsible for travel expenses to the U.S. from their home country. Emory University cannot assume responsibility for economic changes such as currency fluctuation, nor can it replace lost support that a student may have expected to receive from relatives, sponsors, or government and corporate grants.
拿到艾莫利大學經濟不補助的國際學生，必須做好自付教育開銷的準備。例如，學生需要自付出國旅費。對於諸如幣值波動導致的經濟變化，艾莫利大學不承擔責任;對於因享有經濟補助而失去本該享受的來自親戚、贊助人、政府的支助，學校也不承擔責任。
Students in the process of obtaining permanent residency status, or "Permanent Residence Pending" status in the United States, should be aware that they cannot be considered for federal financial aid until they receive actual documentation of their immigration status and provide it to the university.
在獲取永久性居住身份的過程中，學生應意識到，在自己拿到移民身份實際文件並將文件提交到學校之前，不能享受州的經濟補助。
How to Apply: Select YES when asked about applying for need-based financial aid on the Common Application or Coalition Application.

U.S. Immigration
If admitted, you will receive an official letter certifying the fact that you have been approved for admission and informing you about dates for registration and the beginning of the term. You should not make plans to leave your country until you have received visa documents from the University division to which you seek admission. Each international student is required by U.S. Immigration Laws to register as a full-time student each semester, except the summer term.
美國移民
如果被錄取，妳將收到官方信;官方信會告訴妳錄取事實、註冊時間和開學時間。在收到妳所申請的大學院系的的簽證文件之前，不要計劃離開自己的國家。根據美國移民法，除了夏季學期，每個國際學生每個學期都需要註冊為全日制學生。
Every international student must have a passport or official travel document from host nation if a refugee. Most passports are valid for a limited time. Before the expiration date, an international student must have the passport renewed at his or her country's nearest consulate or embassy in the United States. To receive a visa to enter the United States, most students will receive a Form 1-20 or DS2019. Unless you are from a country not subject to visa restrictions, this form must be taken by the student to a U.S. Consulate Office. The Consulate will issue the visa and mark it in your passport.
如果國際學生具有難民身份，必須持有護照或者美國開具的官方旅行文件，才能入境。大部分護照只在特定時間內有限。在失效前，國際學生必須在就近的領事館或大使館更新護照。為了拿到簽證入境美國，不部分學生需要持有1-20 或 DS2019。除非所在國家沒有簽證限制，否則學生必須將1-20 或 DS2019帶到美國領事館辦公室。領事館負責簽發簽證，在護照上做標記。
Subject to visa requirements, an international student may not enter the United States unless the visa entry has been made in the passport. You should advise the University if your country will permit you to leave only on a "J"-type visa.
Upon arrival at a port of entry to the United States, present the passport and form I-20 or DS2019 to receive an Arrival/Departure Record (Form I-94). Permission to stay in the United States will be for the duration of your status as a bona fide non-immigrant student.
(Note: Forms I-20 and DS2019 will not be issued by Emory University until you have been accepted for a program of study and have submitted evidence of funds necessary to meet all expenses while enrolled.)
作為簽證要求壹部分，國際學生的護照上必須有簽證許可，才能入境美國。如果妳自己所在的國家只允許妳持J類型簽證出國，妳需要告訴學校。
到達美國入境口之後，出示護照和I-20(DS2019)，登記入境。居留美國的準許期限為妳以真實非移民學生身份居留的期限。
註：申請到艾莫利大學的課程名額、提交經濟證明之後，學校才會給妳簽發I-20(DS2019)。
Insurance
Medical insurance is mandatory for international students at Emory and Oxford. All international students automatically will be enrolled in the ?Accident and Sickness Insurance for Emory University Students? plan unless the student shows that he or she has equal coverage prior to his or her registration. Once accepted, each student will receive further information about the mandatory insurance regulation from the International Student and Scholar Programs Office.
保險
國際學生在艾莫利大學學習，必須繳納醫療保險。國際學生註冊的時候，默認為繳納?艾莫利大學事故和疾病保險?，除非學生能證明在註冊之前已經繳納同等保險。壹旦被接受，每個學生將可以從國際學生學者項目辦公室了解強制性保險相關規定。
