STUDENTS who have applied for the Ujrah (syariah-compliant financing product) loan under the National Higher Education Fund Corporation (PTPTN) should check the corporation’s website to find out the status of their applications.

Those who have been offered should click on ‘e-pinjaman’ and log in with the same password they used for the online application.Students should also print their offer letters and complete the necessary documentations and send them to the PTPTN office. All documents should arrive by tomorrow. Only completed documents submitted within the stipulated time frame would be processed for the Ujrah offer.

To date, only 1,372 of 6,327 students have responded. The first batch of students chosen as qualified for the loans are those who had their PTPTN education loan approved online between June and December 21 last year; those who are undergoing diploma and arts degree programmes at public universities (IPTA) and those who are not receiving PTPTN loan advance.
Those who qualified but have not as yet received the offer are expected to get theirs in the next batch.

The corporation has begun implementing the syariah-compliant financing product concept recently

- An Ujrah borrower has to be a student and those with outstanding loans would need to settle them before they are eligible for the Ujrah facility.

- A borrower who has been convicted by a court is also not eligible for the loan.
