19 Master Promissory Note: A binding legal document that you must sign before you may receive a federal student loan. There is one MPN for Direct Subsidized/Unsubsidized Loans and a different MPN for Direct PLUS Loans. William D. Ford Federal Direct Loan (Direct Loan) Program - Student loans provided by the U.S. Department of Education to enable a student to pay for education after high school. Eligible students borrow directly from the U.S. Department of Education to attend participating schools. Federal Family Education Loan (FFEL) Program - Federal student loans borrowed through private lenders and guaranteed by the federal government. FFEL Loans include the following types of federal student loans: Subsidized Stafford Loans, Unsubsidized Stafford Loans, FFEL PLUS Loans, and FFEL Consolidation Loans. You repay your FFEL Loan to the lender, secondary market, guaranty agency or the U.S. Department of Education.The FFEL Program ended June 30, 2010 and no new loans have been made under the FFEL Program since that date. Private Loans: If you took out student loans from a private lender such as a bank or a credit union, you may have to begin making payments while you're still in school. Contact that private lender immediately to arrange payment.
20 Principal - The loan amount plus any capitalized interest. During repayment, the principal is usually referred to as the outstanding (unpaid) principal balance. Loan Fee - A fee charged for each federal student loan you receive that is a percentage of the total loan amount you are borrowing (gross amount). Presently just over 1%. Interest - The cost to borrow money. Interest is calculated as a percentage of the outstanding principal balance. Capitalized Interest - Unpaid interest that has been added to the outstanding principal balance of a loan. Interest is then charged on the increased outstanding principal balance.
21 Loan Holder - The entity that holds your loan promissory note and has the right to collect from you. For Direct Loans, your loan holder is the U.S. Department of Education. Loan Servicer/Federal Loan Servicer- An entity that collects payments on a federal student loan, responds to customer service inquiries, and performs other administrative tasks associated with maintaining a loan on behalf of a loan holder. Repayment - To pay back money you borrowed by making scheduled payments to the loan servicer. Repayment Period - The maximum time period over which you must repay your federal student loan. Normally 10 years.
22 Grace Periods for Federal Loans After you graduate or drop below half-time Federal Stafford Loans: 6 months. Federal Perkins Loans: 9 months When this grace period is exhausted you begin making payments. Summers: Periods of non-enrollment that span only the summer between two enrollment periods do not begin repayment. If you don t pre-register for the coming Fall you may receive notice that payment will come due. You can temporarily stop payments with Deferment and Forbearance. You can return to In-School Deferment when you re-enroll in any degree seeking program at least half-time.
23 Subsidized Direct Loans: When is interest Subsidized (not accrued)? While in-school at least half-time During the grace period (except those borrowed July 1 st, June 30 th, 2014) During deferment periods During certain periods of repayment under Income-Based and Pay-As-You- Earn Repayment Plans Interest accrues after you graduate or drop below half-time. Unsubsidized Direct Loans and PLUS loans: After the first disbursement and during all periods.
24 Federal student loans made after June 30, 2006 have fixed interest rates. The fixed interest rate changes every year for NEW loans. Refer to your NSLDS report and Loan Disclosures for your exact interest rates. The Current Interest Rate for Direct Student Loans for loans with a first disbursement date after June 30, 2016 and before July 1, 2017: Subsidized Loans: 3.76% (0% while in-school) Unsubsidized Loans: 3.76% Graduate Loans: 5.84% PLUS Loans: 6.84% Consolidating loans is one way to get a single fixed interest rate for all of your loans.
25 Direct Loans are "simple daily interest" loans. This means that interest accrues daily. The amount of interest that accrues per day is calculated by dividing the interest rate on your loan (as a decimal) by the number of days in a year, and then multiplying that by the outstanding principal balance. For example, on a $10,000 Direct Unsubsidized Loan with a 3.76% interest rate, the amount of interest that accrues per day is $1.86: ( / 365) * $10,000 = $1.03
26 If you don't pay the interest, it is capitalized (added to the outstanding principal balance). You will be charged interest on the increased outstanding principal balance. For example. If you are in a deferment or forbearance for 6 months, a $10,000 loan with a 3.76% interest rate will accrue interest totaling $186. You will be charged interest on the increased outstanding principal balance of $10,186. The amount of interest that accrues per day will increase to $1.05: ( / 365) * $10,186 = $1.05 Under most repayment plans, this capitalized interest will increase your monthly payment and the total amount you pay over the life of the loan
27 If you can, pay interest during your grace period or periods of deferment/forbearance to avoid having interest capitalized (added to your principal).
28 Direct/FFEL Federal Student Loans: After your Grace Period 6 months after you graduate or drop below half-time enrollment PLUS Loans: PLUS Loans enter repayment when they are fully disbursed (paid out), but your loan will be placed into deferment while you are in school at least half-time and for an additional 6 months after you graduate or drop below half-time status.

54 Falling behind on your payments. If you fall behind contact your servicer and they can retroactively defer or forbear your payments. Get back on track with your payments to avoid default.
55 If you fail to make payments for 270 consecutive days you will Default on your student loan. Default means your loan can become due in full ( acceleration ) You will lose eligibility for deferments, forbearance and repayment plans. Additional late fees and collection costs can start being added. Your wages can be garnished Your tax refunds can be withheld and be applied towards your loan payment You will lose many federal benefits including future Financial Aid eligibility. It WILL affect your credit severely. Getting out of default is long and difficult
56 THERE IS NO REASON TO DEFAULT Take advantage of the options the government gives you. Income Based Repayment Plans Deferments Forbearances All will help you avoid default. Just talk to your servicer!
57 If you have multiple federal student loans, you can consolidate them into a single Direct Consolidation Loan. A Direct Consolidation Loan will simplify repayment if you are making separate loan payments to different loan servicers, as you'll only have one monthly payment to make. There may be tradeoffs, however, so you'll want to learn about the advantages and possible disadvantages of consolidation before you consolidate. More Direct Consolidation Loan Information is available on StudentAid.gov
58 Total or Permanent Disability If you become totally and permanently disabled as defined in federal regulations and meet certain other requirements. Death If you die. If you are a parent borrower of a PLUS loan and the student for whom you obtained the loan dies. School Related Discharge If your school: Closed before you could complete your program. Falsely certified your loan eligibility. Did not have your authorized signature. Failed to refund all or a portion of your federal student loans to the loan servicer, when it was required by law to do so. Or if your federal student loan was falsely certified as a result of identity theft.
59 Federal student loans are not generally eliminated as part of personal bankruptcy. Contact your federal loan servicer to discuss your federal student loan repayment options.
60 If you think there might be an issue with your federal student loan, first collect and review all of your loan paperwork, then identify and document what you think the problem is. Call your loan servicer to discuss the issue. As a last resort, if you are unable to resolve the issue by working with your loan servicer, you may contact the Federal Student Aid (FSA) Ombudsman for assistance. StudentAid.gov/ombudsman If you would like additional information to guide you through the problem resolution process, please visit the Resolving Disputes section of StudentAid.gov.
