As far as I can tell, almost all Business Schools are in the same condition of not having a lending program that will allow for international students to borrow without a U.S. Citizen co-signer. Private loans where an international student obtains a U.S. Citizen co-signer are still available. We will keep our website up to date with developments, as we continue working to develop a way for international students to reasonably access loan funds in advance of needing to make a final decision about where to attend business school. Deposit deadlines for admitted candidates who are awaiting secure financing of international student loans will be adjusted as necessary to accommodate market conditions.

It is this hope and belief that keeps me going. Dude… don’t be in a hurry to drop these schools…am sure the schools will work things out and come up with other options for applicants like us.

As you have already done so much research and started with the essays as well, whats the harm in applying. If you don't get in, atleast you have a top B-school interview/application experience with you. If you get in: there are 2 cases. 1) co-signer is needed. then you can write a mail to the school, saying, due to some reasons I am not able to join this year. please consider me for the next academic year 2) In December, some of the banks say that no co-signer is needed(may be the december conversation turns out good for you), then it'll be really great But in case you do not have enough time and you thinking about other schools, go on with them first and if you are left with some time, get back to Darden destinationbschool.blogspot.com San
