I understand that finances play a key role when you are planning your education abroad. The budget is probably one of the first few things that factor in the final decision. The affordability of tuition fee and the living expense should not be the reason for the student to drop their dream and hamper their career.

While scholarships could be very helpful to keep this dream alive , most times it is not possible for each student to avail one for themselves. Thus, loans are the safest option which people rely on. And don’t be scared loans doesn’t have to be a burden. There is a wise approach that you can take. 

I have curated a list of banks that offer you the cheapest loans along with their interest rates, so that it gives you a bird’s eye view. 

Axis Bank - 13.70% P.A

HDFC Bank - 13.8% P.A

Bank of Baroda - 9.85% P.A

SBI - 13.70% P.A

Federal Bank - 13.6% P.A

The tenure that you get to pay off the loan from all of these banks is 15 years, so you don’t have to worry if you would be able to pay off the debt or not. You can easily work through your EMIs and look for jobs that fetch you good salaries and growth. As a student and as a working professional, you will have a financial back that could help your career progress. 

In the last year itself, 76% of study aspirants took loans for their masters abroad which shows that the process is very feasible by example.. We’ve personally helped around 2000 students with their loan process. So until your family or you yourself have managed to save up enough money, you should definitely consider taking a loan which suits your requirements.

 

If any of this feels like a hassle, you can directly get in touch with experts from the industry who have been doing this for a while and can help you accelerate the process. They will will make sure none of your study abroad dreams get hampered because of some financial constraints.

 

Let me know if this helped and if you need any other information from my end.

The interest rates and requirements for an education loan to study in the USA can vary significantly based on several factors including the lender, your credit history, and whether the loan is secured or unsecured. Generally, unsecured loans do not require collateral like property documents but come with higher interest rates—often between 8% and 12%. Secured loans, requiring collateral such as property, typically offer lower rates, around 6% to 8%.

Upon completion of your master's degree, repayment usually commences after a grace period that may extend up to a year, allowing you some time to find employment. It's crucial to understand whether your interest rate is fixed or variable. Fixed rates remain constant, providing predictability in your repayment amount, while variable rates can adjust depending on financial market trends, potentially leading to higher payments. Before finalizing the loan, ensure you evaluate the terms thoroughly to align with your financial planning post-graduation.
