Any banks supporting oversea studying?

I'm going to uni this year in the UK but planning to go abroad after next year. I was wondering whether there are banks in the UK that would support students overseas while studying. Maybe loans with very little or even no interest at all etc.

If there is such a bank (I don't know much about different banks) I'd apply for it now, since I need a new bank account anyway (interest free overdraft's - uni purposes)

cheers

    I don't think so. You can tell the bank your loan is for education but I don't think the interest rate offered will be lower than for any other purpose. In any case you would need a UK guarantor, as you could just stay overseas and never return the money.
