Scholfe offers flexible, interest-free education loans for parents and upskilling finance for professionals — helping families and institutions thrive together.
For Parents
Scholfe bridges the gap between your child's ambitions and your school's fee schedule — with zero interest and total flexibility.
Pay only what you borrow. No processing fees, no surprise charges — ever.
Choose a repayment plan that works for your family's monthly budget with auto-deduction for peace of mind.
Apply online in minutes. No physical paperwork, no branch visits — just a smartphone and your details.
For School Owners & CFOs
Turn future fee income into immediate working capital. Scholfe discounts your school's fee receivables and pays you upfront — so you never wait for cash that's already yours.
No property collateral. No lengthy underwriting. Your school's own fee receivables are the asset. We assess your enrolment strength, fee history, and collection track record — and advance you the capital your institution needs to grow.
How the Escrow Mechanism Works
Assigns fee receivables to Scholfe
Fee BookAdvances discounted lump sum upfront
Upfront CashAll parent fee payments flow through a neutral escrow
Ring-fencedScholfe recovers from escrow; surplus released to school
Auto-sweepReceive a lump-sum advance against your confirmed fee receivables — typically within 5–7 working days of approval. No waiting until term-end.
No property mortgage. No personal guarantees on assets. Your fee receivables alone back the loan — keeping your balance sheet clean.
We purchase your fee receivables at a small discount — meaning you get cash now, and Scholfe collects the full fee from parents over the term.
A dedicated escrow account holds all incoming fee payments. This protects both school and lender — and makes collections automatic and transparent.
Infrastructure upgrades, hiring, technology, marketing — use your advance for any school growth need. No end-use restrictions.
Repayments flow naturally from the escrow as parents pay fees — so your cash outflow is automatically matched to your cash inflow.
Share your enrolment numbers and last year's fee collection data — our team will structure a financing offer around your school's actual receivables.
