Loans for internationals?

well...
I have used a local bank to finance my wife's education. i opened an account with a local credit union and received a $20K limit credit card with 7% APR. not bad. If needed, I could increase the credit limit by putting up a request...
The good thing is that any late payments on that account dosen't go against my credit history. Bad thing is that payment starts immediately, whereas in a student loan I could wait till her graduation to start payments.
But since I am working, and my wifes tuitions are not that high, this works best for me. I wanted to avoid the hassle of doing all the paperwork for this amount.

Hope this helps....Its not that much, but someone might find it helpful..

It is expected that banks are going to reduce credit lines by $2 trillions in the coming months.So not a gud idea to borrow on credit cards for education.

Really depends on the program you are going to. The UE's all will have some program or the other in place (I think UChic said that) and I believe there are a couple of private loan company's too (not sure of the name but I had used one in my undergrad). Try the admissions office or the fin aid office once you get in of your school.
