Frequently asked questions about the Lendwise application
How early do I need to apply?
We suggest applying early (at the time of applying for entrance). We aim to respond to you with a quotation within 2 business days. If you leave your financing planning late, you risk having to scramble for a decision within a tight deadline of paying your deposit and/or commitment fee. This is especially true if you have applied in a late application cycle.
What documents do I need?
You do not need any documents to apply. If you have been habitually resident outside the United Kingdom it is a good idea to source your credit report from your country of residence credit rating agency. If you are offered a loan and accept your loan proposal you may be requested to provide other documents to confirm your employment and salary status, own funds contribution, scholarship.
What happens if the amount I require changes?
If your requirements change our Loans Team will be happy to assist you with other scenarios.
Why do you only offer 3 months of post graduation grace period when other companies offer more than 6?
We closely follow the employment report and other employment statistics of WHU – Otto Beisheim School of Management MBA graduates over the years. Extending the grace period adds up significantly to your cost of financing for no apparent benefit.
