<p>I'll be attending Dartmouth College next year as an international student. I didn't apply for financial aid when I applied to the school because Dartmouth doesn't offer a need-blind admissions policy for international students.</p>
<p>I'm wondering if anyone can recommend me private loaners: What's legit, what's a scam?</p>
<p>We're still waiting for our permanent residency visa so when we get that, we'll be able to apply for financial aid. Problem is, we don't know when the immigration offices will give it to us (all depends on luck).</p>
<p>What a gamble.</p>
