my advice is that you shouldn't come off too cocky in your apps. You described your ecs as superb and an award as tremendous: even if it's true, they don't want you to be so sure of yourself.

I'd say that you are well in the running, but I am not familiar with how competitive the international pool of applicants is. I don't believe there is need-blind financial aid for international students also, but you do seem like a very strong candidate, so you might get what you need. The only thing I can see that might be a little low is your verbal SAT score, but that can be excused for your being an international student.
