Goal Structured Solutions (GS2) is pleased to announce that The FAQS Student Loan Program has recently added The University of Chicago – Booth School of Business for the 2012/13 academic year.

The FAQS program enables schools like The University of Chicago to continue to expand their global footprint, enhance their brand overseas, and recruit and retain the best and brightest students from around the world by providing international students with the financing for their college education. By removing the financial barriers for these students, their goal of advancing their education can be achieved. According to Ron Gemkow, Executive Director at the Booth School of Business, “Booth is delighted with the FAQS program as it provides a solution to the financing need many of our best international students face… [The program] is able to help deliver low cost loans to talented students when no other financial aid may be available.”

According to an opendoors® report published by the Institute of International Education (IIE) in partnership with the U.S. Department of State’s Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs, for the 2010/11 academic year a record number of 723,733 international students were attending school in the United States, a 32% increase from 2000/01.

“We are excited to be enabling the FAQS program” said Ken Ruggiero, the President and CEO of Goal Structured Solutions, the FAQS Program Administrator, “We believe the program’s structure will be attractive to other schools like The University of Chicago, and we hope to add more schools to FAQS’ growing client list over this summer.”

“UBS is proud to be a part of this innovative program” said Carl Jackson, Executive Director at UBS Securities LLC, the placement agent for the program, “We are equally proud to have a leading business school like the Booth School of Business involved.”
