Period and terms of disbursement and repayment of the loan

In the case of students, the loan may be paid out for a period of six years, and in the case of doctoral students – for four years. Loan tranches are paid in the academic year for a period of ten months.

Students must repay the loan in equal monthly installments two years after graduation. The number of installments is twice the number of student loan tranches disbursed.During the loan tranche period and during the grace period, interest on the loan is repaid in full by the state budget.

In the event of finding oneself in a particularly difficult life situation or a complete loss of the ability to repay liabilities, the student loan may be partially or fully redeemed. At the request of the borrower, the decision on redemption is made by the minister responsible for higher education.

Detailed information on student loans is available on the website of the Ministry of Education and Science.
