Why SFA?

Accessibility
Accessing financing for education is difficult across Africa. Banks offer student loans but require collateral and an existing banking relationship with them. Often, their repayment periods are short, and their loans don’t cover the total amount of tuition you need. Also, many use traditional credit scores, and most people in Africa (80%!) don’t have a credit history. To banks, lending to students, and often their parents is risky.

Reliability
Government programs are helpful, but often only cater to the poor. And, even if you qualify for these programs, it’s often not enough to cover a year of school fees, not to mention that government programs can run out of funding. SFA will fund your tuition needs for a year, and we will pay it on time directly to your program. No stress wondering if your loan will get funded.

Plans
SFA works with you and your family to meet your needs through an innovative financing approach. We offer a variety of loan products that cater to different term amounts and timing schedules. SFA loans are built to meet your cash flow needs, minus the stress and complications typically associated with student finance loans and installment plans.
