London, January 2026 International study plans are gaining momentum again. Prodigy Finance has opened loan applications for its Fall 2026 intake, signalling a return of confidence after a year of visa uncertainty and tight funding deadlines. For Indian students, this intake marks a clear comeback. It signals renewed belief, earlier planning, and a determination to take control of the journey rather than pause it. Students are applying sooner, thinking longer term, and backing themselves to compete globally. This is not just another application window. It is a reset moment. A chance for ambitious students to plan better, act earlier, and take their next decisive step towards a global education.

From top-ranked universities in the US and the UK to leading institutions across France, Germany, Australia and Canada, eligible students can now apply for funding that covers the full cost of attendance*, including tuition and living expenses.

For many, this is more than an application opening. It is the moment when months of waiting and uncertainty turn into action, and a long-held study abroad ambition starts to feel real again.

The Fall 2026 application window is open to selected regions, with India included, reinforcing Prodigy Finance’s position as a go-to international lender for ambitious students. Loans are offered in the same currency as the country of study, with no collateral and no co-signer required*. Eligibility is based on academic merit and future earning potential, not family assets or background.

Sonal Kapoor, Global Chief Business Officer at Prodigy Finance, says this intake offers students a genuine opportunity to compete on a level playing field. “This year, students will get a fair chance, whether they come from a metro city or a small town. At Prodigy Finance, our approach is merit-based and focused on future earning potential. Demand will be strong, and competition will be high, as many students have been waiting for this moment. What we can assure students is that those with strong academic foundations and clear career goals will be evaluated fairly.”

Sonal further added that Prodigy Finance’s loan eligibility is not limited to students from elite universities. “Talent is the differentiator. If you have the talent and the ambition to go further in life, money should not be the thing that holds you back from a global education.”

Students can explore Prodigy Finance’s list of supported universities on its official website and apply, taking their first real step towards funding their study abroad for the Fall 2026 intake.
