Loan schemes specific to geographic areas

Some loan schemes are restricted to a country or global region:

Note: African countries, Australia and New Zealand have no national loan schemes. Students from these countries should contact their local banks and government offices for more information.

Take care

If you're considering applying for a loan, look carefully at the repayment commitment asked of you. Lenders ordinarily base their decisions and subsequent loan amounts on students' income and repayment capacity. Most lenders require some personal contribution and will provide a loan for part of your course costs only. Funding is not guaranteed as decisions are discretionary.
