Education Loan


An education loan is a loan granted to the student who is accepting non-obligatory education or to the student's direct family relatives or legal guardian for the purpose to cover the student's tuition, living expenses or other education-related expenses. According to the uses of the funds, education loan services may be further classified as tuition loan and living expenses loan.

  You can apply for an education loan in our branch once you meet the following requirements

  • You are of 18 years old or above.
  • You have a valid ID card and certificate of permanent residence.
  • You have a valid certificate of student and vouchers for tuition payment.

  • Certificate of marital status (if applicable).
  • Certificate of income (if applicable).
  • A valid certificate of student and relevant payment notice or certificates( such as recruitment notice, registration notice, tuition fee list).
  • Loan application form (available at any SPDB branch).
  • Other documents required by the bank.
  Loan Amount

The maximum amount of a tuition loan shall not exceed the tuition rate charged by the school (to be based on the tuition list/receipt issued by the school). The maximum amount of a living expense loan shall not exceed the basic living standards at the school.

  Loan Tenor

If you are an undergraduate in a higher-education institution, the maximum tenor of an education loan granted to you shall be no longer than 4 years upon graduation.
If you are a direct family member or the legal guardian of a student, the maximum tenor of an education loan granted to you shall be no longer than 5 years.

  Repayment

During period the student in question is at school, the education loan may be repaid on the basis of "first in , first out". The principal and the interests may be repaid in part or as a whole at very short notice. And the interests will be calculated according to the actual period for which the amount of the loan to be repaid has been used.
If the student borrower still has some outstanding loan upon completion of his/her training program, starting from the next month upon the graduation, the outstanding loan balance (with the sum of the outstanding principal and the outstanding interests being the total amount of the loan) shall be repaid by same principal and same interest payment method as follows:

 
Principal and interest to be repaid every month
Same principal and same interest repayment
total loan amount× monthly interest rate + total loan amount× monthly interest rate÷[( 1+monthly interest rate)total months number-1]
