Hey,

Im a Canadian student who's been fortunate enough to get accepted this cycle. I've been trying to figure out how to fund my education and was just wondering how you guys, as international students did it. Or if anyone knows good opportunities for Int'l students to get their hands on some $$ for school please let me know.

I am planning on just getting a professional bank loan but i just want to see if their are any other options.

Thanks

Well it is not easy...
Bank loan for 150K from TD, parents consighn
Osap Gives: 8K*4 years= 32K
Which is still short of the amount you need in most places.
If you have a year to spare get a job should be able to save 20K easily and still have fun (what I did).
Hoping my parents to find 20K a year, which is hard.....

Unfortunatly you will need to have 250K minimum, and that is ultra frugal 🙂 hoping that the exchange rate does not change.
it is doable. Especially if you can get a school that does not make you get health insurance or allow to get a cheaper version and has low cost of living.
Otherwise: Dartmouth and Case are your chance they will help a lot financially.
Good luck
