Financial Aid for International Students

International students do not qualify for federal loans and work-study eligibility, and school scholarships are very limited. Eligibility for off-campus employment is also limited due to immigration regulations. These students can apply for journalism-related scholarships as well as be considered for college assistant positions on campus, and we also recommend visiting the International Journalists’ Network website, https://ijnet. org/, for a list of web links to scholarships and fellowships. International students may be eligible to borrow an alternative loan from a bank. International students will need to find a credit-worthy co-signer who is a U.S. citizen or Permanent Resident (green card holder).
