You should always carefully evaluate how much money you will need to study in the USA. Then research and apply for scholarships, financial aid from your school, and find money from any other source, including family funds. After exhausting these avenues, most international students still have a funding gap, and that's where international student loans come in. International Student Loans are now a very realistic way to finance your education in the US. Loans are very flexible, and can offer loan amounts high enough to pay for your entire education, but with extended repayment terms and reasonable interest rates, so you can afford the repayment after you graduate. Here's some basic information you should know about international student loans: US Co-Signer Required. Since these loans are credit-based, international student loans require a credit-worthy US citizen or permanent resident (green card holder) as a co-signer. Repayment. Repayment of an international student loan can b...

There are plenty of reasons to like Trader Joe's: helpful employees in Hawaiian shirts, a no-questions-asked return policy, unusual items such as cookie butter and rosemary marcona almonds, and -- best of all -- low prices. However, not everything is a good deal at Trader Joe's. We compared its regular prices on a variety of items with the regular (non-sale) prices of similar items at Harris Teeter, Kroger, Walmart and Whole Foods. While we found that it's tough to beat Trader Joe's everyday prices, there are a few things that are better bargains at other stores. Take a look at the items you can get for less elsewhere -- and in some cases we're talking dollars less, not just pennies. For each one, we've suggested related items you might want to purchase instead at Trader Joe's because the regular prices are better than you'll find on competitors' shelves. Almond Butter An alternative to peanut butter, almond butter is one of Trader Joe...

1. Charging a Big Balance to a Store Card You're tempted to buy thousands of dollars' worth of furniture or appliances and charge it all to a store credit card that doesn't require payments for six months or even a year—and sometimes longer. But debt that sits untouched could drag down your score, especially if the balance is near the card's limit, says John Ulzheimer , president of consumer education at SmartCredit.com. That's because your credit-utilization ratio—the amount of debt you have relative to your credit limits—is calculated for balances on individual cards as well as overall. In addition, store cards tend to charge steep rates, so if you don't pay the balance before the interest-free period is over, you will rack up big charges. 2. Trashing a Parking Ticket Parking and speeding tickets, library fines, and other dues to the government left unpaid won't go directly to your credit report. But if they are eventually reported to a coll...

A glitch in its customer checkout systems caused delays and long lines at some Target stores across the country Sunday night, the company said. The Minnesota-based company issued a brief statement after social media lit up with reports Sunday evening of big backups and closed cash registers in the checkout lines at various Target retail stores. " Target has identified an issue impacting checkout at some of our U.S. stores,'' spokeswoman Molly Snider said in an email. "The glitch is causing delays at some checkouts, but is not in any way related to a security issue.'' " We apologize to anyone impacted, and we are working with guests in stores where the issue has not yet been resolved to accommodate their needs,'' she said. Long lines and the inability to pay for their purchases saw an outcry on social media, with customers in at least five different states and in New York City complaining that debit card payments weren't working at t...

Tiffany Roberson works for the state of Texas as a parole officer, teaches part-time, and is living with her parents after having completed her master’s degree. She’s held off marrying her boyfriend of four years and starting a family because she owes more than $170,000 in federal and private student loans that she took out to pursue her education in criminal justice. “I’ve never gone into default,” the 30-year-old says. “What really hurts is people say I’m a bum for living at home.” Stories like Roberson’s are sadly common in the U.S. Student loans today are one of the only deteriorating pockets of consumer credit, with balances and delinquency rates rising to record highs even as a strengthening economy allows Americans to reduce total borrowing. Outstanding student debt topped $1 trillion in the third quarter of 2013, and the share of loans delinquent 90 days or more rose to 11.8 percent, according to the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. By contrast, delinque...
