Step by step process for Education Loan

Education is for a life and lifestyle.

Every Indian should get educated to be a better individual and a better Indian. India is the most populated country and if every Indian is educated and skilled, no sooner India can become a super power in the world. Why does China play an important role in the making of any product, it is because every individual is educated and it is mandatory for every child to get best education. When India has skill, population and ability to do anything, it is parents right to ensure their child is educated to the extent the their child’s ability is portrayed.

Teach the best of living and get the best of skills. This is the only motivation a parent can ever give to their children. Government is being very supportive introducing multiple schemes for success of the youngsters. Banks are being extremely supportive to fulfil the Government’s idea in educating and enabling India as a super power. Youngsters should strive to reach their interests and claim an opportunity to prove themselves.

Education loan does provide such support system to achieve the goals of an individual irrespective of the course they choose and the institute they choose. None of the banks in India can reject a education loan file. Hence, let us understand now how to apply for education loan and what are the documents you need to get the maximum loan amount for education loan.

Step 1 – Search for the appropriate bank.

Every bank has their own product for the education loan. Each bank has their own interest rate. All you need to understand is you get the Right Education Loan at Right Time.  Don’t waste time in roaming all around and visiting all the branches. Search online, search Loanyantra and talk to them for the right product.

Step 2 – Documentation and Application Form Filling

Once the documents are with the banker, the banker uploads the documents for the approval. Above average student has a chances of getting the 90% of the funding and also a better rate of interest on education loans. Everything is confirmed by bank to your email. Constantly check your mail for the details.

a) Amount the bank can give as education loan

b)The rate of interest applicable to you

c) What is the moratorium period.

d) What is the repayment tenure and from when does it start.

Step 4 – Loan Disbursal

Once you get the sanction letter over mail, you can visit the branch for disbursal. The disbursal of the education loan depends on the university you apply to. It varies from country to country. While you search for the college or university abroad, also search for the fee payment details as per the country. For example Australia and New Zealand asks the student to get the loan disbursed before the visa check. Hence, the fee payment schedule plays an important role for disbursing the education loan.
