How much is the tuition for Fatima if I use FAFSA from the US. I graduated from the Philippines with a BSPT degree and practicing here in the US.
I heard that Fatima is recognized as one of the eligible schools in the Phils. to accept federal funding from the US.
Would they charge me more if I use my federal funding? Or would I be the same as the local students, as I graduated from the same university anyway?
What throws me off is the FAFSA loan. I don't know if Fatima would classify me as an international/foreign student, I hope not.
Anyone who's using federal loans? Even if you're from US and classified as foreign student? I just need an idea on how much they might give me in federal funds when I decide to go back to med school.
Also, I heard when the school receives the money, I might be able to get some of it provided there's still anything left for personal use. Is this true? I'll be needing federal fund and I plan to use it when I go back.
Anyone?
