We all need money to study and we don’t all have parents who can fork it out. But if you do have family to help out with securing a bank loan, take advantage of it, get your studies behind you and pay back your student loan as soon as you can!
It can be a challenge to find funding. We get it. A great game plan would be to suss out your options and take it from there. There are opportunities just waiting to be snatched up. We promise.
Try a Student Loan
- Most major banking institutions offer student loans at attractive interest rates. Interest rates may decrease for consecutive years of study.
- Normally bank loans cover the duration of study and are repaid once you start working or once you have graduated. Some banks offer a grace period to students who are completing internships, articles or community service.
- In most instances you are required to repay the interest while still studying. Sometimes surety / security is required, which means that a relative, friend or sponsor must guarantee to repay the loan if you fail to do so. Visit your local bank to find out what products they offer students.
