The State Bank of India (SBI) has come up with a new education loan scheme for students that will offer low interest rates and quick approval. Called the ‘SBI Global Ed-Vantage’ loan, the scheme is exclusively for those who wish to attend foreign colleges and universities to pursue full-time courses.

In a release, the public sector lender said that with the upward trend in students preferring foreign education, the scheme will be the SBI’s customised financial solution to make it a possibility.

SBI has informed that it has covered regular degree courses, post-graduate degree courses, diploma courses and also certificate/doctorate courses under this scheme. Moreover, the bank has also listed the countries to which the loan can be availed for. Students who wish to study in the US, Canada, UK, Europe, Japan, Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, and Hong Kong can apply for this loan.

Depending on the requirement, the loan amount starts from Rs 7.5 lakh and goes up to Rs 1.5 crore. For the interest rate, the bank has fixed 8.5 per cent and also offers a special concession of 0.5 per cent for female students. The repayment process can begin six months after the course completes and the repayment period can be extended to a maximum of 15 years.

The SBI education loan covers tuition fees, exam fees, other campus facilities like labs and libraries, books, equipment, instruments, uniform and travel expenses.
