I thought about private messaging you this response, but I thought maybe others would benefit from the information so I'm posting publically.Icebreaker wrote:So that really leaves me with either a scholarship or a loan. And since no scholarships exist for this sort of thing (as far as I know - care to differ?), that leaves me with student loans. Problem is, that federal loans *do* exist for US citizens enrolled abroad, but they are only doled out to those attending approved schools - which in Finland is limited to the University of Helsinki and the Helsinki School of Economics: neither of which I wish to attend.
Where did you find out that that US citizens can get loans for the University of Helsinki and the Helsinki School of Economics?
I'm contemplating attending TKK for a master's degree program in Electrical Engineering next year, so the answer might not matter - but the eligible schools are likely subject to change anyhow. I have several concerns and questions that don't appear to have been asked yet in this forum, so I might create my own monstrous thread here soon.
