Domestic awards require U.S. citizenship or eligible-noncitizen status; international Presidential awards are listed separately.
- Good to know
- Domestic and international Presidential benefits differ. Domestic offer includes tuition and fees after other tuition aid, double-room/meal costs and up to $20,000 enrichment over four years; the current international page confirms full tuition and campus double-room costs but excludes fees/meals and does not list enrichment. Both list up to eight fall/spring semesters; international renewal requires full-time status, satisfactory progress, 3.0 GPA and policy compliance. Check the individual offer for precise aid coordination.
