Sonal Kapoor, Global Chief Business Officer, Prodigy Finance, says funding decisions are based on academic strength and future earning potential

Prodigy Finance has opened applications for its Fall 2026 intake, marking a renewed phase of confidence in international education planning. The latest application cycle reflects a shift among students toward earlier decision making and long term preparation following a year shaped by visa uncertainty and compressed funding timelines.
The Fall 2026 window is open to selected regions, including India, enabling eligible students to apply for education loans that can cover tuition fees and living expenses, subject to institutional cost limits. Funding is available for students admitted to universities across the United States, the United Kingdom, France, Germany, Australia, and Canada.

Prodigy Finance offers loans in the local currency of the country of study and does not require collateral or a co signer, subject to eligibility conditions. Applications are evaluated on academic performance and projected earning potential rather than family assets or financial background. Loan amounts range from 10000 dollars to 220000 dollars, depending on programme requirements and total cost of attendance.
For many applicants, the reopening of the loan window represents a transition from hesitation to action. Students who delayed plans over the past year are now approaching the process with greater clarity, applying earlier and planning finances alongside admissions rather than as an afterthought.

Commenting on the intake, Sonal Kapoor, Global Chief Business Officer at Prodigy Finance, said, “Funding decisions are guided by academic strength and future earning potential, not where a student comes from. Whether applicants are from large cities or smaller towns, those with strong fundamentals and clear career goals will be assessed on merit.”
She added that eligibility is not limited to candidates from elite institutions. “Talent is the differentiator. Students who demonstrate capability and ambition should have access to opportunities that allow them to compete globally.”

Founded in 2007, Prodigy Finance has supported more than 45000 international master’s students and has disbursed over 2.3 billion dollars in education funding to students from more than 150 countries. The lender operates a borderless model backed by impact investors and regulated financial entities, enabling access to education financing based on future outcomes rather than past credit history.
Students preparing for the Fall 2026 intake can review supported universities and submit applications through Prodigy Finance’s official website as part of their study abroad planning.
