Abstract | A student loan scheme (SLS) came into efefct recently in Thailand, covering both upper secondary and tertiary level schooling. The central objective of the scheme is social - to increase access of poor students and to prevent student dropout. The loans scheme is highly subsidized owing to the extremely favorable repayment conditions, which in turn calls into question the longer-term financial viability of the scheme. The average repayment ration on loans is only about 20 %, while an overall loan recovery, taking into account repayment default and administation costs, is 10 % or less. It is recommended that the loans scheme for the upper secondary schooling be converted to a grants scheme; alternative reforms are suggested to rise the average repayment and recovery rations on loans for tertiary level students, closer in line with international experience.
