Can a foreign student get a grant/scholarship to go to school in the USA?
I have a friend from Colombia. She is here working here in the US as an Au-Pair. She wants to pursue her masters here in bacteriology. Is it possible for her to get a grant or scholarship being that she is not from the US but wants to study here? If so, what is a good starting place for more information? Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks!!

Grants are given to US citizens though some grants award it to permanent residents, but not for tourists or those with working visas The best place to check is through the schools who will accept her. I know of many foreigners who come to the US and study here. The first semester is tough to get any grants or scholarships, so the best bet is to have your own funds and use it for the first sem. Once you go to the second semester, you've got more options for grants
