Higher Education And Skill Development Guarantee Scheme
About Higher Education And Skill Development Guarantee Scheme
Through the banking system, the Higher Education and Skill Development Guarantee Scheme backs meritorious students who want to study in Delhi, or who are taking recognised degree, diploma or skill development courses at Central or State Government universities and institutions outside Delhi (within India). Its main goal is to let deserving students get affordable, reasonable bank finance for higher education.
Education loans of up to ₹10 lakh taken by students are covered by a Higher Education and Skill Development Credit Guarantee Fund set up by the Government, which guarantees banks against loan default. No collateral or margin money is asked of students. The scheme is universal and covers every eligible student, whatever their social or economic background.
