This post probably belongs in peer review, but it would definitely help to give us more information about yourself.

In your case, I'd look at sites like USNews and BusinessWeek to find schools with some combination of:
  • High placement for finance function and industry
  • High mean scholarship amount
  • Low average debt load
  • Low cost of living cities

Using these as general filters, I came back with a decent list to check out:
  • Cornell
  • USC
  • North Carolina
  • Emory
  • Notre Dame
  • Washington St Louis
  • Rice

Also, I'm not familiar with any of these schools as far as loans to international students, so you'll have to research that on your own.
