The PNB education loan for abroad studies offers up to 15 years of time for the students to repay the loan. The students have the option of either paying interest in the moratorium period or opting out of it and then including that interest in the following EMIs.

The Punjab National bank also does not have any prepayment penalty and offers students the choice of closing off the loan before the completion of tenure in the following ways.

  • Choose a shorter duration to repay the loan
  • Prepayment
  • Transferring loan to another bank

Repayment isn’t the best of times for students as they can come across many difficulties during this time. However, even in the repayment phase, WeMakeScholars tries to solve all the issues that a student faces such as a sudden increase in the ROI.
