New PM Vidyalaxmi Scheme: Student Loans Without Collateral or Guarantor Requirements

The Union Cabinet, led by Honourable Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi, has approved PM Vidyalaxmi, a new Central Sector plan to provide financial assistance to economically weaker students so that financial restrictions do not impede them from pursuing higher education. PM Vidyalaxmi is another significant program resulting from the National Education Policy 2020, which advocates that meritorious students receive financial help through various methods in both public and private higher education institutions. Under the PM Vidyalaxmi initiative, any student admitted to a quality higher education institution (QHEI) will be eligible for a collateral-free, guarantor-free loan from banks and financial institutions to cover the total amount of tuition fees and other course-related expenses. The scheme will be administered using a simple, transparent, student-friendly, interoperable and digital system.
