Engineering a Better Tomorrow: Why India Needs More Self-Reliant Students

MBA
May 22, 2025

Each year, thousands of Indian students earn admission into top MBA, Engineering, and Medical programs. These aren’t just academic milestones—they’re life-changing opportunities. But many dreams are paused, deferred, or even abandoned—not due to a lack of merit, but due to a lack of financial access.

The Real Problem: Who Pays for the Dream?

The cost of higher education in India continues to rise:

  • ₹18–₹30 lakhs for an MBA at a top B-school.

  • Up to ₹100+ lakhs for a private Medical degree.

  • ₹8–₹20 lakhs for Engineering in Tier-1 institutes.

These figures are often beyond what middle-class families can afford. And so begins the silent struggle behind closed doors.

The Hidden Sacrifices of Families

To fund their child’s education, families often resort to:

  1. Dipping into savings, including retirement funds

  2. Borrowing from relatives or friends creates emotional pressure

  3. Selling property or assets jeopardizes long-term stability

  4. Burdening the student emotionally, leading to guilt, stress, and reduced confidence

This dependency impacts not just finances, but family esteem and the student’s sense of independence. So, what is the solution? Aatmanirbharta maybe! Let’s understand

What Is Aatmanirbharta?

Aatmanirbharta means being self-reliant—not just in spirit, but in action.

For students, this means funding their education without burdening their parents or depending on others. It means being able to take control of their future, confidently and independently.

And here’s the empowering truth for you:

Your academic track record can be your strongest asset.

Today, with platforms like Kuhoo, your past efforts—your marks, college admission, and entrance scores—can help you access education loans without any collateral.

It’s not about your family’s income or who can be your guarantor. It’s about your own merit.

Why Self-Reliance Matters

When students become financially independent early, they gain:

🎓 Confidence to take bold academic and career decisions
🧠 Clarity—no stress, no guilt, just focus on growth
💪 Control over their future—from education to employment

But that’s not all. Aatmanirbharta leads to lasting benefits that go beyond the classroom:

  • 📈 Higher Discipline & Responsibility
    Studies show that students who fund their education through loans tend to be more organized, focused, and sincere in their studies. The sense of responsibility makes them better decision-makers.

  • 💳 Stronger Creditworthiness
    Taking an education loan helps students begin building their credit history early. A good repayment record boosts their CIBIL score, which becomes essential for future financial milestones like buying a home, getting a car loan, or even starting a business.

  • 💼 Preferred by Employers
    Many recruiters today factor in a candidate’s financial credibility and sense of independence. A student who has responsibly managed a loan demonstrates maturity, accountability, and long-term thinking—traits that employers respect.

Self-reliance isn’t just a financial decision—it’s a mindset that builds leaders.
With Kuhoo, students don’t just chase their dreams. They fund them with dignity, control, and confidence.
