Common questions from students

How much education loan can I get for Masters in Germany?

Depending on the university, collateral and co-applicant profile, lenders can fund up to 100% of the cost of attendance for a Masters in Germany.

What interest rates can I expect on an education loan?

Public sector banks typically offer 8.5%–10.5% p.a., while NBFCs like HDFC Credila, Avanse and Auxilo range from 10.5%–13.5%. Girl students and premier universities often get 0.5% concessions.

Collateral vs non-collateral loans — which is right for me?

Collateral (secured) loans offer higher amounts (up to ₹1.5 Cr) and lower rates. Non-collateral loans go up to ₹50 Lakhs for tier-1 universities, depending on your university ranking, course and co-applicant income.

Will a loan help my visa success rate?

Yes. A sanctioned loan letter is strong proof of funds for UK, Canada (GIC + tuition), USA (I-20) and Australia. We pre-verify documents to reduce refusal risk.

How long does loan sanction take?

Non-collateral loans can be sanctioned in 5–10 working days; secured loans take 2–4 weeks due to property valuation.

Is your guidance really free?

Profile assessment and loan comparison are free. We are paid by partner lenders only when a loan is disbursed — never by you.
