In India, there are primarily two types of education loans available
-
Secured Education Loans: These loans require collateral, such as property, fixed deposits, or government securities, to secure the loan amount. Secured education loans typically offer higher loan amounts and lower interest rates compared to unsecured loans. They are suitable for borrowers who can provide valuable assets as security.
-
Unsecured Education Loans: Also known as non-collateral education loans, these loans do not require any collateral or security. Instead, lenders evaluate the borrower's creditworthiness based on factors such as credit score, income stability, and repayment capacity. Unsecured education loans are ideal for borrowers who may not have assets to pledge as collateral or prefer not to risk their assets. However, they may come with higher interest rates and lower loan amounts compared to secured loans.
Additionally, education loans in India may be categorized based on the level of education they finance
-
Higher Education Loans: These loans are designed to finance higher education courses, including undergraduate and postgraduate programs, professional courses, and diploma programs offered by recognized institutions in India or abroad.
-
Vocational Education Loans: Vocational education loans are tailored to finance skill development programs, vocational courses, training programs, and certification courses offered by recognized institutions or training centers. These loans aim to support individuals seeking to enhance their employability and skill set through vocational education.
