Note

1. If you are applying to University/ College as a new student, you can bring in the acceptance letter as soon as you have received it from the institution. However, all other documents as outlined above must be brought in on your specified appointment date.

2. The SLB only funds applicants who are fully matriculated to a course of study. If a programme requires that a student is to complete pre-requisites or courses/ additional subjects in order to be fully enrolled as a tertiary level student in the institution, the SLB will not fund the period/ year in which the student is completing the pre-requisites. It must be noted that if your acceptance letter indicates that you are “Conditionally Accepted” or you are required to enter into “General Studies” or you can enter the programme “Pending” a grade in a particular subject, you are considered by the SLB to have not fully matriculated and as such will not be funded through the SLB.

FAQ

Yes, once your loan is approved you may change the school of choice, programme or enrolment status stated on the application. An adjustment fee must be paid.

Are there any penalties for early payment on a student loan?
No. There is no penalty. You can pay off your loan(s) at any time, even if you are still enrolled in school. You may also increase the size and frequency of your payment at any time.

Guarantors must be between the ages of 18 and 60, inclusive,must have a valid TRN and must be permanently employed for at least a year. However, if your guarantor is over 60, he/she can be assessed to determine whether or not he/she is financially able to undertake the responsibility in the event of the beneficiary’s delinquency.

The beneficiary/ applicant must find another guarantor to sign for the loan in order for you to become eligible for loan. You may be allowed by special permission to apply but you cannot receive a loan unless you are released from the guarantor agreement.
