New Delhi,23.04.25 : According to Flashaid’s recent user research conducted across tier 2 and tier 3 colleges in India, over 40% of students in non-premium institutions either delay or default on their tuition fees due to the lack of accessible financial support. This finding highlights a growing affordability crisis within India’s education system, where rising costs and limited financing options are becoming significant barriers to higher education.

“Education should be a stepping stone, not a stumbling block. Yet today, millions of students are being forced to choose between aspiration and affordability. With Flashaid Smart Fee, we’re not just offering a payment solution, we’re creating a financial safety net that empowers families to invest in education without fear or compromise.
