Thread: Loan program available for US students

St. Martinus is offering the AIMS loan program for US Citizens and Permanent Residents. The school offers up to $100,000 in financial support at interest rates ranging from 8% to 10%. Contact the NY admissions office for more details.

Can you imagine - interest rates at 8-10% - what a cheek - is this school running on the backs of students - and they offer you no guarantee of passing - adequate professors - lousy rotations, your whole medical career becomes a rickety venture - and then you have to pay back all this money when you don't even get close to a medical degree. This school should close, and be honest with itself in not being able to provide you with a real medical education, and you should be wise enough to look elsewhere.

It seems "greatdoctor" has only complaints. What's the problem, can't keep up with the work load? As a general rule every school runs on student tuition, and as a rule any good school cannot give you a guarantee on passing. You pass if you are qualified to. Suggest you waste less time on ValueMD and spend more time studying.
As far as the loan is concerned: others have applied and got it. That is the only thing that counts.

well i think there is nothing like cheek 'greatdoctor' and about passing guarantee no school will give you the assurance

Hi everyone, does this program still apply to US citizens looking to pursue the medical degree at St. Martinus? I have been admitted for the July '12 program, and I really need some financial assistance. Thank you very much for your assistance.
