We offer PharmAchieve students low-interest loans of upto $15,000 to help you get the credentials you need
Windmill Microlending is a Canadian non-profit offering low-interest career loans to help newcomers pay for the education they need to succeed in Canada. Since 2005, Windmill has supported over 12,500 immigrants and refugees to overcome underemployment and succeed in their careers.
We partner with institutions to help their members cover costs of tuition, accreditation, relocation and living costs. Our affordable loans are designed to meet the unique needs of immigrant clients, who often cannot access mainline credit, by providing a fixed interest rate that is lower than other financing options.
Each year, PharmAchieve trains thousands of internationally-educated pharmacists looking to obtain a licence to practise as pharmacists or pharmacist technicians in Canada. Windmill Microlending has partnered with PharmAchieve to provide the financial support you need to take continuing education or prep courses to write the required exams and apply for a pharmacist license.
Our loans offer two years of interest-only payments and up to three years of
principal + interest payments depending on the length of your career plan.
