There is a specific section that is featured on fastweb today about international grants and scholarships.  \n\n\nYou should also check with a financial aid advisor where you attend school.  Some schools also have international student clubs and departments that specialize in resources for the international student.

There are some, yes.\n\nCheck out this link for loans: http://www.edupass.org/finaid/loans.phtml (particularly the ISLP loan)\nOr check out this one for other options: http://www.edupass.org/finaid/\n\nMany schools offer institutional scholarships to international students.  Don't let closed-minded people's comments get you down.  At the school I work for, we don't take citizenship status into consideration when determining a student's eligibility for our merit awards; we understand that talented students come from all over the globe. Our administration certainly doesn't consider it "a waste of money" -- it works both ways: just as our school looks good on our students' resumes, any cream-of-the-crop student (regardless of where they are from) looks good on ours.

The best thing to do is contact the college and/or colleges in the United States you would like to attend - many major US colleges have had many students attend them from India.  They may be able to direct you to information to be found in Delhi.\n\nFor information on what are considered the best colleges in the United States go to http://www.usnews.com/usnews/edu/college/rankings/rankindex_brief.php where you will also find websites to many US schools.\n\nHowever - if you are looking for great US schools check out the University of Michigan http://www.umich.edu/\nNew York University http://www.nyu.edu/\nor \nThe University of Rhode Island http://www.uri.edu/\n\nGood Luck!!!

check with the schools financial aid office. ask for scholarships or student loan programs. check out tuition waivers based on gpa performance. also, find out if you qualify for that funding, being that you are an international student.

i work at a university and unless students are perm residents or us citizens they can only get loans that are co-signed. otherwise, they're are not allowed to enter the US unless they have the funds to support themselves for the time they're earning their degree.  if you're enrolled in a us university, you should speak to a financial aid officer or visit the university's website for financial aid and the one for international students.  even if you're not enrolled at this time you can visit the schools website to get the info you need.  at the university where i work they try to put as much info as possible on the website for students, parents, and employees and most of it is available to anyone surfing the web

For the USA, as long as you are not white, there is a lot of financial aid and free rides available to you.  If you are white, maybe you can get loans, but you will have to pay them back.  If you are coming to the US from another country, that helps a lot too.

Go to a cheaper college than transfer to Your choice college in Junior year.  I wish I wish I knew this expensive lesson before I got so many student loans.\n\nIn your case outside the US I don't know what education programs are available. You can apply to colleges here and the school themselves may offer you a scholarship.  If you are a good writer your essay can win you scholarships and grants.\n\nCheck on line for government programs, check the university websites to see what they offer as well. Most schools offer grants, loans, and work study but again I don't know how much they offer to non us citizens.\n\nIf there are good universities there check to see if any have a study aboard program then while you are here studying you can learn more about what options will work for you.

Here's FinAid.org's list of loans for international students:\nhttp://www.edupass.com/finaid/loans.phtml\nAnd here's their list of scholarships:\nhttp://www.edupass.com/finaid/databases.phtml\n\nYour best bet for a study abroad loan might be the ISLP loan: http://www.internationalstudentloan.com/us_citizens/index.html\n\nIt's not entirely true that you need to file the FAFSA to gat aid from *any* private financial instutition.  There are two reasons why a private loan company might ask for this: (1) many lenders want to see that you exhausted all your options for low-interest Federal Student Aid before they lend you any private aid or (2) many private scholarship [and some loan] companies want to know what your financial need is and since the FAFSA is the only ubiquitous, official way to determine this, they sometimes require the results.

Even as an international student, you should still qualify for some type of grant program. I would call your school's financial aid department and ask them what kind of programs you could qualify for to help pay for school.

Being a non-resident will prevent you from getting most kinds of Federal or State aid.  But, private schools and state-funded schools (in some instances) often have funds for which non-residents are eligible.\n\nAll of this depends very much on the particular school, so you really need to contact the Financial Aid office at the school or schools you are interested in attending.  Explain your situation to them and ask them what's available.  They're there to help you.
