I'm planning to start an online graduate program through the University of Nottingham, UK, starting in September. While I had initially planned to pay out-of-pocket, some unexpected costs have arisen. Now I'm looking for a lender that will provide a loan for distance learning.

 The main problem I've found is that most private education loans will not accept non-US programs. The other problem is that the university considers the distance learning program less than full-time, so I am not eligible for the more reliable lending programs.

 Does anyone have any advice for me?
