<p>I am trying to get into the graduate program in many schools. But I am stucking at the pre-master and English courses since English is not my first language.</p>
<p>I could be able to use the fafsa for the master degree but not pre-master couses. Since the latter are non-degree seeking programs. I enrolled to many school in USA and UK but it seems like they could not give the exact answer and many say not possible.</p>
<p>Even pre-master programs seem to be essential for non-english speaker like me it couldn't be used with fafsa. I have tried to contact Sallie Mae but my family and i dont have sufficient credit to be qualified for Sallie Mae.</p>
<p>I have been doing the research for a months. I could not get out of the situation. Many people suggested me to go to Undergrad degree but I do not want to since i already got one and do not want to waste 4 years.
What should i do i need only $20k for pre-master course.</p>
<p>You would be eligible for aid if you were to get into an undergraduate degree program, but you would only be able to borrow the annual maximum loan amount for your year in school (sometimes students will get into a program at the junior or senior level by applying some credits from their previous degree to a new degree program) - meaning the max you would be able to borrow is $12,500/year - no other federal aid (except possibly work study) for a student with a prior bachelors degree. If you can’t get into a regular undergrad program, you can try to get into a post baccalaureate program to complete your prerequisites. Loans are are limited in post-bacc programs, as well, and are generally either $10,500 or $12,500 total to be used in a 12 month period (no additional loans allowed for the program).</p>
<p>If your English is not good enough for a Master’s program, it probably isn’t good enough for an undergraduate program. Very few places admit students for second undergraduate degrees, and even if you were admitted, you would only be eligible for $7500 in student loans.</p>
<p>You need a less expensive Academic English preparation course. Have you looked at the community colleges in your area? Ours offers classes during the day, evenings, and weekends. With a program like that, you would be able to work at least part-time, and the tuition and fees would be very cheap.</p>
