Loans for International Students

The Stanford University Graduate School of Business has partnered with the Star One Credit Union to provide private educational lines of credit to international Business School students. There may be other private educational loans for international students. However, many private educational loans do not offer the combination of relatively low interest rates with the possibility of not requiring a US co-signer for the loan.

Please Note: Star One Credit Union will not approve a line of credit for international students who are from countries listed on the United States Treasury Department's Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) list of programs and countries with Financial Sanctions.  The list of countries include Western Balkans (Croatia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Serbia, Montenegro, Kosovo, Albania, FYR of Macedonia), Belarus, Myanmar (Burma), Cote d’Ivoire (Ivory Coast), Cuba, DR Congo, Iran, Iraq, Lebanon, Libya, North Korea, Somalia, Sudan, Syria, and Zimbabwe.

Loans for US Citizens and Permanent Residents

The School has a list of recommended lenders that will provide private educational loans to GSB students. US citizens and permanent residents must first borrow federal government loans for which you are eligible before any additional funds are available for lending.
