Applications for the 2025 batch are now open, and each school has its own timeline. Since the academic term dates vary by program, students are encouraged to visit the official Prodigy-supported schools page for specific details, deadlines, and term dates.
For years, financial constraints have held back talented students from pursuing higher education abroad. Prodigy Finance is changing that narrative with its unique lending model, one that looks beyond a student’s current financial situation and instead considers their future earning potential.
Sonal Kapoor, Global Chief Business Officer at Prodigy Finance, emphasised the significance of this move. She states, “Education isn’t just about degrees; it’s about opportunities. By expanding our network to these universities, we’re not just offering loans; we’re investing in futures. We want every deserving student to have a fair shot at studying at world-class institutions, no matter their financial background.”
In addition to expanding its partner network, Prodigy Finance is also committed to making education more financially accessible. Prodigy Finance has introduced partnerships with universities that waive the CAS deposit requirement for students with a Prodigy Finance approved loan. This means students no longer have to worry about large upfront payments, which is a major hurdle with most traditional lenders. With this, Prodigy Finance is making higher education more accessible and student-focused.
Institutions such as Aston University, Brunel University, Bangor University, De Montfort University, University of Aberdeen, University of East Anglia, University of Greenwich, University of Hull, University of Leeds, University of Reading, and Kingston University have waived this upfront deposit requirement for Prodigy Finance loan holders, allowing them to focus on their academic journey without any stress.
Unlike traditional lenders, Prodigy Finance’s approach is different. The approved loans are disbursed directly to the institutions to cover the full cost of attendance, including tuition fees, while any applicable living expenses are routed through the school to the student’s personal bank account.
As Prodigy Finance adds more universities to its network, it’s also improving its financial support to meet the growing needs of international students. To help manage the rising cost of attendance, the company provides education loans of up to $220,000, with funds disbursed directly to the university. This course and school expansion reinforce Prodigy Finance’s commitment to ensuring access to quality education.
Loans offered between $10k and $220k
