Financial Aid Newsletter

April - Issue #25

Welcome to the Financial Aid Newsletter for International and Study Abroad Students brought to you by IEFA.org, InternationalScholarships.com and InternationalStudentLoan.com.

We’re glad to see a lot of optimism about international education now that the vaccine rollout is gathering speed around the world, but we understand that many students are still hesitant about making commitments. Let’s keep looking forward to promising times ahead.

In this edition of the newsletter we cover loans for students in Canada and share the benefits of studying in Europe as an international student. On the subject of Europe, we have a wonderful opportunity to apply for a scholarship to study an MBA in Sweden.

We also have a video about the best ways to find a scholarship, and our Financial Aid Explained term this month is “Interest” – so read on for more!

Sincerely,
The International Financial Aid Team

Financial Aid Explained: Interest Interest is a fee charged for taking out a loan – this is part of the “cost of borrowing.” Interest is calculated as a percentage of the principal loan amount. The rate may remain constant throughout the life of the loan (fixed rate) or it may change over time (variable rate).
