International students interested in fianncial aids at MIT follow very much the same process as domestic applicants. MIT is known for offering 100% scholarships that too on a need-basis, to eligible students.

There are two methods to apply to a MIT scholarship:

  • Via CSS Profile:  The College board provides a tool that gauges whether a student is eligible for a MIT scholarship or not
  • Income or Parental Tax return document: A English translated version of your parent's tax return is to be submitted through the IDOC platform managed by the College Board.
