Hi Everyone!

Was wondering if anyone knew of any "student type" loans available to international students studying full-time in the UK?

Would really appreciate any feedback!

Thank You.

    Whether you are eligible for student loans in the UK depends on which part of the UK you plan to study in, and whether your home country is in the EU or not.

    If you are from outside of the EU then you may find this website useful - http://www.ukcisa.org.uk/ which provides information on fees & finance for international students.

    Also speak to the University you are studying at/intend to study with. They may have a useful source of information at the student union or bursaries etc.

    Look at your working rights under your student visa, as you may need to get a job to support yourself.
