Education Loan FAQs

  • What is an overdue amount?

    The loan balance that a client fails to return on time is referred to as being "loan overdue." In such circumstances, the lender may assess a late payment fee or an overdue interest rate on the amount past due.

  • Can I transfer my education loan to YES Bank?

    Yes, you can transfer your existing education loan to another bank.

  • Can I apply for an education loan in YES bank if I haven’t got admission yet?

    Yes, you can always try applying for an education loan before getting admission to get an estimation of how much amount you can get from the loan. Reach out to us to know more about the loan application process by requesting a callback.

  • Can I reduce my education loan interest rate?

    Yes, the interest rates can be negotiated with the banks depending on the applicant’s profile for an education loan. To know more about it, request a call back from us.

  • Which is better: Reducing the EMI or reducing the repayment tenure of my education loan?

    Reducing your repayment tenure is better than reducing your EMI. A reduced EMI might be a better option for people with a lot of other debts to pay as it reduces the load for each month. But a smaller EMI each month results in a longer repayment tenure because of which you end up paying a lot more in the form of interest.
