US Federal Student Aid

Overview

When should I apply for my loan and how long will it take to process?

We recommend that all applications are submitted, once the offer of study is made and you have secured your place, to allow enough time for your application to be processed for the first available disbursement date. Applications received after this date will be processed as soon as possible, but please be aware that it may no longer be possible to process your loan in time for the earliest disbursement date. In these instances, your first instalment will be scheduled on the next available disbursement date.

Our federal school code is G10574

Other funding options for US students

The Preferred Lending List for Private Loans is the complete list of all lenders who will lend to American student who are studying outside the USA where there are no costs or liabilities to the school. Currently, the list consists only of Sallie Mae. The list is reviewed annually.

If any student finds another lender who will lend to American student who are studying outside the USA where there are no costs or liabilities to the school, then the school will consider the lender for inclusion on the list of lenders.
