Question

where can i get a finanicial aid for my pharmacy or health related graduate school in thr U.S?

Answer 1

Generally, there's very little financial aid out there for international students. Federal financial aid is saved for American citizens, permanent residents, etc. However, I do know though that Sallie Mae does give loans to international students. Here's the website for Sallie Mae. look under "Getting a Loan - Finding Loans to Help You Pay" (the blue column):
http://www.salliemae.com/

Here's another website that has info on financial aid for international students:
http://www.edupass.org/finaid/
Also, go through the links here for more sources:

While you're researching options, be aware of loan interest rates that are too high. Also, try to find scholarship opportunities for international students. Go through these links here:

Be careful though and think twice if a webiste wants to charge you for scholarship information. It might be a scam. Don't pay money to find money.
Good luck.

Answer 2

I'm not sure if you can get financial aid as an international student.
Financial Aid from the government like FAFSA is mainly for those who live in the state and pay taxes.
As an international student, you could only get scholarships from your school or from other companies. You could also get student loans i think. But thats about it.

Answer 3

You can't get any federal financial aid. That is the only kind of financial aid available for pharmacy/ other health related grad students. Furthermore, most pharmacy schools do not admit foreigners.
