Celebrating 18 Years of Unlocking Potential



Since 1996, Eduloan has delivered financial solutions to South Africans looking to further their education, no matter the level of tuition. March 28, 2014 marks our 18th birthday, allowing us to celebrate the more than 720 000 study loans to the value of over R3.7 billion that we have awarded to South Africans looking to further their education.

 Eduloan remains the leading education finance specialist offering loan solutions to students – whether it is school, college, technicon or university. We understand the real cost of education and because of this we extend loans to students who require funds for textbooks, accommodation, study-related equipment as well as laptops or tablets.

Fund and bursary management has also evolved through the introduction of our Eduxtras solution. We pioneered the smartcard solution – geared to help students manage their bursary funds while the bursar has peace of mind that the funds are being allocated and spent as intended. Funds are loaded into pockets for accommodation, books, study-related equipment, food and tuition (or customised pockets depending on what your bursar specified) and can only be spent on the intended purpose.

In the past 18 years we have also assisted employers by providing accessible education finance to their staff. Eduloan has a long standing partnership with government and institutions which allows government employees easier access to obtaining a loan.  Similiarlee Eduloan has applied the same model to corporates for their employees.

Dedicated to providing educational finance and bursary fund administration solutions, we pride ourselves on being the only financial company solely focused education.

We commit to innovate more solutions to unlock even more potential in South Africa.


Happy birthday Eduloan!

4 Reasons why it is a good idea to pay off your study loan by the time you graduate

Our study loan repayments are generally made over a period of 10, 16 or 22 months. At Eduloan we believe that it is better for students to make arrangements with a sponsor who is working so that your loan and interest can be paid back by the time you start working, thereby freeing you of extended periods of debt, high interest rates and compound interest. We have five good reasons why it is a good idea to pay off your loan before you graduate!


No Hidden Fees
Our loans have fixed repayments – making it easy for you to budget since there won’t be surprise increases.

Make sure you start your career fresh… and debt free
Because you’re starting out a new career and making a fresh start, we want you to have to focus on building your skills and experience without being distracted by the stress of budgeting for your study loan.

Other debt
When you start your working-life, you have other cost to consider like the cost of housing and transport. Whether you are saving for a house or renting an apartment or a room in a house-share, or whether you are saving up for your own pair of wheels – the additional stress of a study loan repayment can  mean that you might take a little longer to get your dream home or wheels.

Dream bigger; the time is now!



What do famous people like Albert Einstein, Walt Disney, Benjamin Franklin, William Tell, Mahatma Gandhi, Winston Churchill, and Martin Luther King all have in common? We’d say a vision – a big dream – fora better future. Every single one of these men dreamt big and had passion to fuel their vision.  Quite frankly the time for back slackingis over and we need to step up.Everybody has a purpose, all you need is vision. 

 Fear however is why our dreams get lost in the clouds. If you do not believe in yourself, you stop yourself from following your dreams. Where you come from should not keep you from achieving your dreams!Make your dreams bigger than every fear of failure in your life. 

It is important to ask questions and to find out the answers to the things you always wonder about. Remember you don’t know what you don’t know.  Build an army of knowledge to fight for you and your dreams. 

We have talked about setting goals, these are all building blocks to reach your dreams.  Think of it as a way of getting closer to your vision, your vision that will fuse passion to eventually reach your dreams. 

At Eduloan we believe in you and your dream for the future.  We are challenging you to share your vision for the future with us and stand a chance to win a voucher from Makro valued at R500 each. Now go on… dream as big as you possibly can. There is nothing stopping you.
