If your cosigner has a good credit then check Sallie mae, they approve loans for international students. They pay the loan directly to your school accounts.

Wow, thank you

EZEIGBO1OFIMO:
This is why twoods hammers that you plan and not just waka go amelika
1. As an international Student, you're entitled to 20 hours per week of work, on Campus; Anything outside this is illegal, and may earn you persona non grata status by Department of Homeland Security. Most Jobs on campus are minimum wage. So, it is IMPOSSIBLE to save $3K a month from minimum wage campus jobs
2. FIU is a school whose total endowment is not enough to fund one Lab at MIT , so I highly doubt if they have scholarship packages. If you can get a Co-signer, there may be some loan packages you can obtain, but Federal Aid is off limits.
The only available option Right Now, Is to resume and immediately transfer to a dirt cheap community college ( it is fully legal to do so) and transfer your i-20. If you had some Mad ass coding skills, all these advise wouldn't have been necessary; just 3-4 freelance jobs would fetch you $4K +. . The life of an undocumented immigrant is a hard one sir

Thank you so much sire, I have a co signer with good credit for student loan though, but what are my chances for been granted loan?
The banks issuing this loans for my school are citizen and discovery bank?
Has anyone here used international student loan? What's your experience?
Thanks fam

Brothers, I got admitted to FIU, and visa approved, but I wasn't given funding, but as a hustling boy, I intend proceeding with the program, my questions. Goes thus
1, can I get a job at miami, that I can confidently save 3k a month, I have skills in painting and interior decorations
2, to people to FIU, I read my books well and get a high GPA, can this make me applicable for a TA,RA,GA or grants, as I really need this masters certificate,
Bros TWOOD, abeg don't start with me abeg, I'm just a Nigerian boy looking for greener pastures

goodemma20:
congrats on your approval, Pls I have a question to ask, when filling your DS-160, did you say you were unemployed or you put your NYSC PPA?

Okay, actually my NYSC PPA is related to my field of study, so I stated I was employed, with my PPA

Hello people, I got f1 visa approval today, and I really need to post my transcript. To people yet to go for interview, just believe in yourself, not with what you see people do and blue sheets flashing around.
It's just a conversation, not a project topic to defend.
Vo: good morning
Me: morning
Vo: ur study plans?
Me: I plan to pursue my masters degree in telecommunication. And networking at florida international university, miami florida
Vo: why this course
Me: well, telecommunication and networking is a course that I've have great interest since my childhood, my grand mum often called it the sorcery from the western world, and learning the principles of wireless communication has been of huge interest, although I feel compelled now more than ever, with the introduction of the IOT(Internet of things), this seams to be a new wave that would have much applications across most industries and sectors, and FIU is currently the first university in the US to take IOT for undergraduate studies
Vo: did you write standardised test
Me: no, it was waved for applicants with GPA above 3.0 and with a convincing letter of intent.
VO: how many schools did you apply to
Me: well for full application, I applied only to FIU, but I applied to MNSU Minnesota, but my decision from FIU came through, before I could send my transcript to MNSU
(MNSU story na tales ooo, was scared of sounding too plain at that point)
VO: when did you graduate from university,
Me: may 2016
Vo: what have you been doing after nysc,
Me: currently I'm on my NYSC atm, to pass out December 24th (batch B stream 2)
Vo: what's your plans upon graduation
Me: to start up an IOT company here in Nigeria, I believe this would be a new wave, that would be high yielding
Vo: who would be sponsoring your trip
Me: my uncle
Vo: what does he do
Me: he is the co owner and CEO of XXXX, based in Houston texas
Vo: your visa is approved, and gave me white paper

Fear not, just tidy your tales, just let your tales flow, do your research, only on. Your school, but also on your tales, the tales is important.
This is my story, thanks family, u guys have been awesome

Glory to God, I saw the Hand of God with the CGI changing my window.
