Our Story
Lorena Lizarraga, a Peruvian, decided seven years ago to pursue a master’s degree in the U.S. She and her husband faced significant financial barriers, needing over $200,000 in loans. The process was confusing, lacking clear information and personalized advice. After navigating this system firsthand and assisting many other students, Lorena created Trotamundos.org to provide free, personalized guidance for international students seeking student loans to realize their dreams of studying in the U.S., Canada, or Europe.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is Trotamundos a lender?
No. Trotamundos.org does not provide loans; they are an advisory and student financing comparison platform. They evaluate your profile, identify the best financing options, work with multiple lenders to offer a clear and unbiased view, and guide you through the application process to choose the best alternative 💡
How do you choose financing options for each student?
Each student has a unique profile. They analyze factors such as university and program (not all lenders work with all universities), nationality (financing options vary by country of origin), presence of a cosigner with U.S. credit history (which can lead to better rates), and interest rates and conditions (comparing fixed and variable rates, payment terms, and additional benefits). Their goal is to find not just a viable option but the most convenient one in the long term, helping you compare and decide with confidence.
What differentiates Trotamundos.org from other advisors or platforms?
They offer personalized advice tailored to your profile, access to multiple options by working with various lenders, total transparency without hidden information or fees, and real experience, having navigated the process themselves and understanding its challenges. With Trotamundos.org, you will always receive honest, objective advice focused on what’s best for you.
How does Trotamundos.org earn revenue?
If you decide to take a loan, the lender pays them a referral commission. This does not affect your loan conditions. Transparency and ethics are the foundation of their work. Their priority is the financial well-being of students, not the benefit of lenders. They provide 100% free and objective advice, maintain total independence by not favoring any particular lender, and ensure no external influence affects their recommendations.
Do I need a cosigner to access a student loan?
Not always. There are two types of loans:
With cosigner: Require a guarantor with U.S. credit history, generally offering lower rates.
Without cosigner: Some lenders offer options without a guarantor, though with higher rates or stricter requirements.
If you don’t have a cosigner, they help you explore all viable options for your profile.
How long does the loan application and approval process take?
The time varies by lender, but generally, the process is quick and straightforward:
First consultation: Identify which lenders are viable for your profile.
Application: Assist you in completing the application during the same call.
Loan proposal: Receive a financing offer immediately or within a maximum of 48 hours.
Evaluation and decision: Advise you to choose the best option based on rates, terms, and conditions.
Formal application: Once the best option is decided, complete the formal process.
Approval and disbursement: The loan is approved, and the lender sends the money directly to the university.
Estimated total time: From the first call to final approval, the process can take from a few days to a week, depending on the lender and university.
Can I pay off my loan before the established time?
Yes, most lenders allow early payments without penalties. Making early payments can save you on interest, and some options allow voluntary payments while studying to reduce the total balance. They will always help you understand the conditions of each loan before you make a decision. If you have doubts about payment terms and want a flexible option, they assist you in comparing alternatives to choose the best one.
