Canadian student loans are provincially administered. You don't say what province you are from but you can find contact information on Canlearn.ca for each province You should contact them or check the websites to see if the school you are planning to attend in Dallas is accredited by your province's ministry of advanced education. You will still have problems with maximum funding levels. In BC where I am, a student (with no dependants) can only borrow $16 640 for 54 weeks maximum. Since the average school year is usually 34 weeks it is more likely that the maximum you would be allowed to borrow from the government is $10 880. Your province may have higher amounts but I would guess not by much. You could also apply to your bank for a student line of credit but those loans aren't interest free like gov't ones are.
