Wow, something is wrong with this picture - either people don't shop enough or schools have been overcharging....
as the result, defaults on Student loans are up and the economy is down.

it will become harder and harder to get these loans
BTW, it's not common here at all or you can say not available .... it's as simple as if you have money you can study

do you think about making sub forum for these loans , scholarships and internships ?
