Just want to clarify your question...

Just like I can't use a loan that most Belgium citizens would use....a "Foreign National" cannot use most loans that US citizens get here either. 

And since you are licensed, you can potentially do some sales on the side to increase income and save up for investing.

Are they just going to teach me things I could learn here or other resources?

Financing as a non-US citizen might be a challenge, but it’s not impossible—I’d recommend reaching out to lenders experienced with foreign investors early in your journey.A few general tips:1.
