what about international students studying as undergrads in the US, are they eligible for scholarships or federal loans?
Who is eligible to apply for the HSBC SCHOLARSHIPS AWARD 2008 and what is the deadline for application?
Dear Mary,
There are need based and merit based financial aid available for the students.
A need-based financial aid package is typically made up of three types of assistance:
* Gift aid consists of grants and scholarships that don’t have to be repaid. These may include particular college grants or scholarships, state grants, federal grants (Pell and Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grants), and scholarships from outside sources.
* Loans—unlike gift aid—do have to be paid back. For subsidized loans, no interest accrues and no payment is due until you’ve been out of school for six to nine months. Federal Direct Stafford Loan maximums are: $3,500 for first-years, $4,500 for sophomores, and $5,500 for juniors and seniors. The maximum award for Perkins Loans, usually reserved for very high need students, is $16,000 over the course of four years. Unsubsidized loans are available for students who do not qualify for subsidized loans based on need.
* Work awards give you priority for campus jobs. Eligible students can work up to 10 hours per week and earn up to $2,250. Most work award recipients use their earnings to pay for personal expenses, books and supplies.
Colleges offer help in calculating financial needs of students.. if you have been offered an admission to a graduate program.. please contact your college financial aid office and inquire about the types of financial aid available..

How about scholarships for middle class U.S. Undergraduates? Those that aren’t eligible for government financial aid, yet are having difficulty financing a collegiate education–even with minimal parental support.
Thanks.
