No, because Barack Obama never claimed to be a foreign student. The news item claiming that he did was supposedly published on April 1, 2009; the date should be a giveaway that the "news report" was in fact an April Fools prank.

No, the claim that Barack Obama applied for college aid as a foreign student and then denied being a foreigner is false. Barack Obama was born in Honolulu, Hawaii, and is a natural-born U.S. citizen. There is no evidence to support this conspiracy theory.

Was Barack Obama a foreign exchange student at Columbia university?

If you are asking about President Obama, no he was not. He was born in the USA and never studied at any foreign universities. But if you are asking about his father (who had the same name as the president), he did come to America to study as an exchange student, and eventually, he returned to Africa.

Is a foreigner able to take a loan from a Chinese bank in order to study in China?

Generally, no, not without introductions. For a foreigner to take a loan from a Chinese bank, the following will be required: * The foreigner is attending a graduate or post-graduate school in China * The foreigner has support from the school for the academic and life requirements * The foreigner has collateral and resources to live in China for the duration of the schooling without a loan (not for tuition, just for living expenses)* The school will introduce the foreign student to a loan manager at a local Chinese bank


Was Barack Obama registered at Occidental College as a foreign exchange student?

No, there is no credible evidence of it. President Obama was born in Hawaii, spent much of his youth there, graduated from high school there, and attended American colleges (including Harvard Law School) as an American student. Sadly, there are a number of myths about the president on the internet, including some from the "Birthers," who refuse to believe that he is an American. But all of the reliable sources indicate he was never a foreign student. That said, there is sometimes some understandable confusion because of Barack Obama's father, who had the same name that the president has. It is Barack Obama Senior who was a foreign student: he came from Kenya to study at the University of Hawaii, where he met Ann Dunham (the president's mom).

How did Obama enroll in Columbia as a foreign student?

This is another of those internet myths. There is no truth to it. President Obama was not a foreign student. He attended Columbia as an American, because he happens to be an American (born in Hawaii in 1961). Sadly, there are a number of false statements about the president, and the "foreign student" statement is a good example.

Did Barack Obama receive foreign student aid in his college student loans?

No, this is an internet myth. Barack Obama was a transfer student from Occidental College, but since he was a US-born citizen, he was never registered as a foreign exchange student anywhere. That said, some people are understandably confused because his father (who had the same name as the president) was in fact a foreign exchange student who came from Africa to study in America. But the president was born in the USA in 1961, and was always an American citizen.


What club was Obama president of?
