Yeah, international students don't generally get any aid, which is why schools like them. But there are obviously lots of affluent households in Asia, so I'm not sure why that would be a barrier relative to Europe or Latin America.
Many European international students actually had full scholarships from their home countries, somehow (this seemed especially true for Scandinavians).
