amu Posted May 1, 2008 Report Share Posted May 1, 2008 Canadians who are currently attending medical school in the US and are taking CanHelp loans; this program is no longer available. As I am one of those individuals who was relying on this loan, I was wondering if there are any alternative loans out there for canadians studying in the united states??? Thanks!

hippie Posted May 2, 2008 Report Share Posted May 2, 2008 you can still have the loan if you have a us or us perm. resident cosigner. Try keybank: https://www.key.com/html/H-1.3.html Access group also had a loan for international students, but it seems they have stopped it for the next few weeks. http://www.accessgroup.org/Student-Loans/find-a-loan/student-loan-finder.htm Citibank also has one for int. students its also for a really low interest. But a cosigner is a must. http://www.studentloan.com/Health/ln_helprofloan.asp?topval=2&siteid=Health It looks the credit crunch is hurting everyone. Also try going to your school's financial aid office, they might have some ideas. Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Baller Posted May 2, 2008 Report Share Posted May 2, 2008 You can try ScotiaBank. People don't really go there for some unknown reason but apparently its really easy to get a loan if you are planning to use it for Medical School. Good Luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
utscdave2 Posted May 5, 2008 Report Share Posted May 5, 2008 hey amu, i'm in the same situation as you are. I can't find a secondary line of credit/loans that will help fund my medical school (besides osap). It seems that you need a US citizen/permanent-resident cosigner for the private loans in the states. This is really unfortuante because I really don't have one.
