Are there any Bangladeshis at this school?

I didn't meet any one from Bangladeshis yet so I would say no.

The majority of students are mostly caucasian, but I have met a lot of people of different nationality

Listen, is there any possibility that Colgate may cover my entire expenses? I know that they cover full need, but I was just wondering.

Hi, I'm a student working in the Office of Admission at Colgate. The University is committed to meeting 100% of the demonstrated financial need of accepted students. You should check out colgate.edu/admission and explore the financial aid pages as well as the Net-Price Calculator for more specific estimates.

As desber mentioned, and as you mentioned in your post, Colgate will cover full need. I have received a significant amount of aid from Colgate, and I have been very pleased. However, in my experience, they will cover your full need for tuition, room, and board if you qualify (check the expected family contribution on the FAFSA form). I would still expect to pay for health insurance (about $700/year), books/supplies, and random expenses. Although they may cover that for some people, I believe I get the most financial aid that Colgate offers and I do cover those expenses myself. If you have more questions about financial aid please let me know!

Thank you for responding to this. $700 a year is ok. However, is there a chance I could potentially, you know, earn that money by working on campus?

Of course! There are tons of jobs on campus. Last year I made just over $4,000 on campus. You can work up to 3 jobs for 20 hours per week on campus. Part of your financial aid package might be work study, which helps people get jobs since you will get first priority in the job market on campus.

Are International students eligible for the scholarship opportunities provided? Like the Presidential scholarship, for instance

Yes

Everyone has a chance or opportunities to be provided with a scholarship no matter what race.
