Is Dartmouth need-aware for domestic and international applicants?

Dartmouth is need-blind for U.S. applicants, including U.S. citizens, permanent residents, and typically other domestic applicants, so applying for financial aid does not affect admission chances in those cases. For international applicants, Dartmouth is need-aware, which means ability to pay can be considered during the admissions process.

So in general, the rule is different by citizenship status: domestic applicants are reviewed without regard to need, while international applicants are not.
