Union Bank Of India Abroad Education Loan Repayment Options
The maximum repayment period for educational loans is 15 years*, including the course and moratorium periods. This repayment tenure applies regardless of the amount of the loan. In case the interest accrues during the moratorium period and is not serviced, it will be added to the principal amount when calculating the Equated Monthly Instalments (EMI) for repayment. This ensures that the interest doesn't become an additional burden for the borrower, and they can repay the loan in a structured manner. It's crucial to note that timely repayment of the loan will not only help borrowers avoid the burden of interest but will also positively impact their credit history, making it easier for them to secure loans in the future.
Expenses Covered
Here is the list of expenses that are covered in the Union Bank student Loan.
- Tuition fees for college, school, or university.
- Hostel and mess charges.
- Examination, library, and laboratory fees.
- Insurance premiums for the student borrower.
- Caution deposits, building funds, and refundable deposits supported by institution bills or receipts.

- Travel expenses or passage money for studying abroad.
- Admission acceptance fees.
- Any other expenses required to complete the course, such as study tours, project work, thesis, etc.
