International Students

As an international student, your primary financial aid options include scholarships and private education loans, supplementing your own funds for the cost of your education.

Scholarships

It is recommended that you begin your scholarship research by reviewing ASU's Scholarship Opportunities .
You may also apply for scholarships on a national level. After you complete a personal profile with a scholarship search engine, you can identify your unique qualifications to be searched against the database of available scholarships from private sponsors.

Loans

To be considered for private education loans through a lender, you must apply for the loan with a creditworthy co-applicant (co-signer) who is a U.S. citizen. If you are an international student, you can request up to the approximate cost of your attendance through private educational loans if you secure a U.S. co-applicant.

You can review Arizona State University’s frequently used private educational lender list to help determine which lender may fit your needs best.
