Hi,
I've received today an email from Cranfield confirming that they have a deal with Prodigy for a 25000pound loan schema.
I think it's quite interesting for foreign students.

is this only for cranfield or applies for other schools also ?

Interesting - it seems like this program collects funding from alumni and gives it out in loans to current students.

It looks like MBAs from these schools are eligible:

Cranfield
INSEAD
INSEAD GEMBA
Oxford/Saïd Business School
SKOLKOVO
Vlerick

There are other emerging loan options for international students at other schools as well: Chicago Booth, Kellogg, and Rochester/Simon have partnered with Deutsche Bank to offer loans to international students without co-signers.

ING gives offers a loan covering the whole tuition fees to people with a minimun entry salary (no co-signer) for Rotterdam MBA

Prodigy definitely offers a good deal for Cranfield, as well as for a variety of other b-schools (including INSEAD, London b-school, Manchester b-school, Said, Cass and Vlerick)

Best of luck!

I really wonder why they don't offer the same for EMBA.. Only Insead signed this deal

I have a feeling they will, as they expand the program. In the meantime, there's more demand for loans that cover MBA programs, so that's where they're focusing.

Executive students don't have the same problems with funding. They are generally in the country already and have good access to credit. In the UK, Germany and other places there are tax effective ways for employers to pay and reclaim the fees from gross salary.
