Almost 30,000 Canadian students were studying in US colleges and universities in the 2008/2009 school year. For Canadian students studying or planning to study in the USA, we offer the Canadian Student Loan, good at thousands of schools around the United States. Students applying for the Canadian Student Loan will require a US citizen or permanent resident co-signer.
Formerly, we offered the CanHelp loan, which was available with a Canadian co-signer; however, as of the spring of 2008, the CanHelp loan has been discontinued and is no longer available. Instead of the CanHelp, Canadian students can now apply for a Canadian Student Loan for study in the USA.
The Co-Signer must be a US citizen or permanent resident, with good credit, income history and who has lived in the USA for the past 2 years.
Canadian students can apply to borrow up to the total cost of attendence for their school, less other aid received. Canadian students are required to have a US Citizen or permanent resident as a co-signer to apply for this loan.

Flexible repayment terms
Loans are accepted at thousands of approved schools
