录了Duke R1的童鞋有办好international student loan的吗?

MarilynR

所有听说的都是Duke可以guarante International student loan,贷到学费+生活费。
有些担心08年金融危机之后，银行都变得比较谨慎，影响到国际学生的无担保贷款。
就像之前Ivey跟我说拿到贷款肯定没问题，结果每家银行都拒了我，让我不得不拒了Ivey
写信去Financial Aid office (finaid-info@fuqua.duke.edu)，want to confirm whether The Coastal Federal loan program can be guaranteed for every enrolled international student without a co-signer? Is there any change on the loan amount? 无答复中。
有没有录了R1的筒子已经办妥了这个贷款的。我如果去Duke得袋120k...
PS. 还在等R2的decision（3/8出来）, 但我得在3/10之前给另一家我的decision，所以得在此之前确定Financial Plan for Duke works or not? Otherwise have to go another school with 3/4 tuition waived.

自己顶一个.
难道没有人清楚他家怎么办 The Coastal Federal Loan for international student 吗?

MarilynR

Shirlyhan 是R1录了呵呵。恭喜恭喜。
唉，我第一年没贷款是凑不足这个钱的。所以还是要等贷款。
Shirlyhan没有跟杜克的financial aid office联系过？问问他们是不是第二年再办贷款手续？
我email写过去3天了，他们不回复我。。。

谢谢Robcat。因为UCI 3／10要我给答复了，Duke贷款有任何问题，我就会去UCI拿60k的奖学金了，怕万一拒了一家，另一家又不成，两头不着地，所以还是想3／10前把准备工作都做好。谢谢你的信息哦～让我又吃一颗定心丸。

可以给大家clarify一下，financial aid officer告诉我，duke可以给我们一封letter,用来出示给VO, 证明duke提供non-co-signer的贷款。hope it works for future dukies.

得到Assistant Director of Financial Aid Office的email确认了呵呵。
Duke的international student loan 今年再金额上没有受到金融风暴任何影响，可以最多贷到170k。

The loan terms haven’t changed at this time and Duke will have the application available to students probably near the end of March.  They are creating an online application.  

Admission office will provide a letter for VISA purposes to show that Duke has non-cosigner loan for international student.
