Hi guys, I and
bb have decided that we will start an individual thread for providing info on financial aid for International students.
I will keep updating the post everyday, so kindly bookmark it to stay updated.
DUKE UNIVERSITY-
Fuqua School Of BusinessNo-Cosigner Options: International students using a no-cosigner loan option may borrow up to 90 percent of their Cost of Attendance (minus other aid, i.e. scholarships, sponsorships, and other student loans) through a no-cosigner International Student Loan program.
Cosigner Options: Loans with a U.S. cosigner typically offer a lower interest rate. The U.S. cosigner must be a creditworthy citizen or permanent resident. Keep in mind that for some lenders, a student must have a social security number in addition to having a cosigner.
Applying for Private Alternative Student Loans
Complete one of the following student loan applications: Duke University Recommended Lenders.
Once the lender reviews and pre-approves your loan request, they will send the school a certification request.
The school will send a loan certification file to the lender, confirming the approval.
Once the applicant completes the required application forms, loan amounts will be scheduled to disburse to the student's Bursar account no earlier than 10 days before the start of class.
Follow the following link to get a detailed organisation of the loan options available-

Most companies such as
Prodigy and Mpower will give you a limited funding, however, unlike most other universities beyond top 20 and like most top 10 universities, Duke has an option with Discover.
I will keep the thread updated daily.
Kindly add any more loan options you already know into the thread so that everyone knows more options
