Pay it back now or later

* Interest rates for Fixed and Deferred Repayment Options are higher than interest rates for the Interest Repayment Option. You're charged interest starting at disbursement, while in school, during your separation/grace period, and until the loan is paid in full. The repayment option that is selected will apply during the in-school and separation/grace periods. When you enter principal and interest repayment, Unpaid Interest will be added to your loan's Current Principal. Variable rates may increase over the life of the loan. Advertised variable rates reflect the starting range of rates and may vary outside of that range over the life of the loan. Advertised APRs assume a $10,000 Health Professions Graduate Loan with a 2-year in-school period. ** This repayment example is based on a typical loan to a first-year graduate borrower who chooses a fixed rate and the Fixed Repayment Option for a $10,000 loan, with two disbursements, a 0% disbursement fee, and a 9.11% fixed APR. It works out to 27 payments of $25.00, 179 payments of $116.19 and one payment of $57.89, for a Total Loan Cost of $21,530.90.
