[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why/how did he apply for a federal loan if he's not a citizen. Did he lie on the application form?[/quote]

hmm. Can American students get the same kind of university loans backed by foreign government in that country? [/quote]

I think it might depend on the country and school. I'm and American currently applying to grad programs in the UK. It works differently there because student loans are pretty rare because university is so highly subsidized. However, those subsidies don't apply to me as an international student. So there's the UK student rate and the International student rate (MUCH higher). However, the schools I'm applying to do have agreements with the US Government and will accept US Federal Loans. So I can apply through FAFSA for a Federal US loan the same way I would for a US school. It only works for the loans though, other federal student financial aid programs (like work study or pell grants) don't apply.[/quote]And even with the MUCH higher tuition, your school is MUCH cheaper than what it would cost to attend a similar school in AMERICA[/quote]
