International Students

International students are not eligible for Federal or State aid.

Students have the option to enroll in Student Financial Services Time Option Payment Plan. 

International students that require assistance covering all or a portion of their university charges may want to consider private educational loans. Private educational loans are offered through a lending institution of your choice. You must apply directly with the lender. The lender may require that you have a co-signer. Some may require that the co-signer is a permanent resident, others require US citizenship. Students are encouraged to review our preferred lender list.
