Yes, a co-applicant is typically required for education loans, especially if you do not have a stable income or credit history.

- In India and the UAE, most lenders require a co-applicant (usually a parent or close family member) with a steady income and good credit history.
- In Germany, education loans are less common, but if you apply for one, having a financially stable co-applicant can improve your chances of approval.

Requirements and documentation can vary by lender and country, and are subject to change.
