Do I need to show funds or financial proof other than an education loan for UAE study visa applications?

Yes, you usually need to show financial proof beyond just an education loan when applying for a UAE student visa.

You may be asked for:
- Bank statements showing sufficient funds
- Salary slips or other financial documents

An education loan can help, but it's typically not enough on its own. Requirements can vary by university and emirate, and are subject to change.

For your specific situation, your LeapScholar counsellor can guide you on the latest financial documentation needed.
