HELB Loan Repayment Procedure (2020 Update)

HELB loan is the sweet and sour pill most university students have to take. We can’t overlook the importance of this loan towards facilitating higher education for most university students in the country.

All the same upon completion of your course and landing a career, look back and see what HELB did for you. That way, you will not see HELB as a burden but as a responsibility that you should live up to.

Undergraduate HELB Loan Repayment begins one year after completion of studies or within such a period the HELB Loans Board decides to recall the loan whichever is earlier.

You can make voluntary payments before or after you complete your studies and you are successfully employed. Please fill in the Loan Recovery Enquiry form and e-mail to billing@helb.co.ke to start or resume your Loan repayment.
