Can I take an education loan for studying in Dubai and how quickly can it be sanctioned in UAE?
10 Jul 2026 · Answered by Saru Sharma · 1 min read
Yes, you can take an education loan for studying in Dubai. Indian banks and NBFCs (non-banking financial companies) offer loans that cover tuition, living expenses, and related study costs for UAE programs.
Loan sanction timelines depend on the lender:
- NBFCs: 5 - 12 working days
- Private banks: 3 - 6 weeks
- Public sector banks: 4 - 10 weeks (longer if collateral is needed)
Apply as soon as you receive your admission offer to avoid delays.
