DFCC Bank has launched the DFCC Student File<\/strong>, bringing together tuition fee payments, education financing, foreign exchange services and selected travel benefits to help students and their families manage the financial arrangements associated with overseas education.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Receiving a university admission is an important milestone, but it also begins a demanding period of financial planning. Families may need to arrange tuition payments, secure foreign currency, finance part of the cost and prepare for travel, often within strict timelines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The DFCC Student File provides a single point through which customers can access these services. The proposition includes tuition fee payment facilities, education loans at preferential interest rates and preferential foreign currency exchange rates. Customers can transact in major currencies when making education-related payments to institutions across overseas study destinations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Commenting on the launch, Dr Asitha Pinnaduwa, Vice President and Head of Products and Propositions, Retail and Business Banking at DFCC Bank<\/strong>, said, \u201cAn overseas admission begins a second process for the family, involving payments, financing, foreign currency and travel arrangements. The difficulty is often not one requirement, but having to coordinate several of them within a limited period. The DFCC Student File brings the principal financial services together so that students and parents can approach this stage with greater clarity and prepare for what comes next.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The proposition also provides access to selected student airfare deals and travel packages, supporting the practical arrangements required before departure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Eligible customers can access exclusive discounts and 0% easy payment plans through DFCC Credit Cards for selected education expenses, travel insurance, laptops and other devices. These options allow qualifying costs to be settled over instalments, helping families manage some of the expenses associated with preparing for overseas study.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Facilities, preferential rates, offers and payment plans are subject to applicable eligibility criteria, credit approval, availability and terms and conditions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The DFCC Student File expands DFCC Bank\u2019s support for customers at important stages of their lives by connecting banking services with the practical requirements surrounding an overseas education. It is intended to help families organise the financial aspects of the process while students concentrate on preparing for the academic opportunity ahead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Students and parents can learn more about the DFCC Student File for overseas education<\/strong> through the DFCC Bank website, visit their nearest DFCC Bank branch or call 011 235 0000<\/strong> for further information.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
