One of today's major problems is the crippling cost of education. It also a well-known fact that outstanding student fees at tertiary educational institutions have increased astronomically over the past few years. This has resulted in increasing financial difficulties for those institutions.

Edu-Loan provides affordable educational finance to students at South Africa's leading educational institutions. Edu-Loan achieves this effort well within the regulatory framework and its own self-regulating criteria which have been applied since the company's establishment.

Edu-Loan also offers these students a unique kind of financial assistance. It not only helps students spread the cost of education but Edu-Loan also gets involved in spreading the increasing high costs of educational accessories (such as textbooks, stationery) through their Edu-Xtras division.
