Hi there, I have no idea to ask. But I’m from the United States and am having troubles looking for student loan or financial aid for a Swedish university graduate program. Would anyone here know or can suggest me to a subreddit that would? I have a personal banking ID, so could I get a loan through a Swedish bank?

I saw that. I thought you might have to be grand fathered in with the way they’re using their verbiage

I'm British and both of our countries are fairly clear. The UK will only offer loans for UK university and Sweden only offers free university for those with residency, with international student fees for those without it. So, probably no loans.

Look at the university pages for international students.

Yeahhh that’s what I’m coming to terms with, that I may not be able to get a loan due to my country. My Canadian friends were able to through Canada and their providence. I also emailed my university’s international department. Thank you!

You'll have to apply for student loan/financial aid from you country. Swedish banks to do not give student loans of any kind. Only our CSN does that but considering it's to pay for living expenses it's not made to pay for tuition and of course international students aren't eligible for CSN to begin with so. Only EU citizens can become eligible for CSN if they also work meanwhile they study in Sweden if IIRC.
