david2810 Posted November 18, 2012 Report Share Posted November 18, 2012 (edited) Hi.I'm an international ('overseas') student and I wanna study in the UK. But unfortunately I can't takes loans or large financial aids, and I can only rely on scholarships, which usually cover a small percentage of tuition fees, or want to to have very very high grades.I was just wondering is there actually a way that an international student could afford tuition fees, without having to work so hard (to pay them)? Something like a loan, or a great discount on the fees? PS: my grade are pretty high and I think I could somehow show that I won't be a lazy student in the university!!

victoriapower Posted November 18, 2012 Report Share Posted November 18, 2012 Some universities offer a work study, so your tuition is not as much because your salary goes towards your tuition. And don't lose hope on scholarships! There's thousands out there and some for your home town, country and some for international students.

Gaby Posted November 18, 2012 Report Share Posted November 18, 2012 The problem with UK universities is that the overwhelming majority of them are public. Therefore, they don't usually offer any big scholarships. If you're an international student, try looking at some scholarships offered for students from your country, maybe from your government or some NGOs and stuff, or commercial loans. The government loan offered in the UK is only for UK/EU students, unfortunately. Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
