The general documentation required by the banks for disbursing education loans is usually very simple. The most important among them is proof from the college/institute that the student has a confirmed admission there. Then comes an agreement with the students or the parents/guardians, and proof of residence. Proof of age is also important, considering that quite a few banks have a clause that they would not finance a student above a certain age limit. Also required are documents to prove that the parents/guardians have a regular source of income, namely, salary statements, IT returns, etc. And, lastly, a resume of the student, clearly showing his past academic performances.
