Question 2

What are the facts about education loans in India?

Accepted Answer

You can easily apply for and get an education loan sanctioned for the courses that you want to pursue in the US. But the complicated application process, hidden costs, and confusing interest rates on education loans are the common issues that you may face.Over the years, banks and NBFCs have dominated the space of education loans for study in the US. However, the loan amount sanctioned, and the disbursement is quite complex. It takes between 2-3 weeks to over a month to finally receive the loan amount. Sometimes the amount disbursed is done in parts - biannually or annually which complicates the borrower’s key decision-making skills. Although Indian students comprise 25% of the students who are accepted into the STEM universities in the US, it is unfortunate that they pay almost twice the rate of interest on the loan amount than their American counterparts. You must have a clear idea of the education rate of interest that is applied to the amount which you have to repay after you have taken an education loan. This allows you to make quick decisions and have clarity about how you want to structure your new life and finances during the repayment period.A lot of banks, NBFCs, and private lenders offer education loans to Indian students applying for MS abroad at competitive terms. However, there are a lot of hidden costs that you are unaware of till the last moment.That’s why you need a smart, transparent, and advanced lender who clears all your doubts. These doubts include, how much can you be eligible to borrow, what your repayment timelines are, how much rate of interest is to be accrued on the amount borrowed and what your repayment structure looks like. If your lender is unable to offer you a simple loan interest rate breakup or is unable to give you a clear outline of all the terms and conditions to be taken care of while repaying the loan via EMIs, you can face a lot of issues.
