Loan with no payment
If you are looking for a loan with no payment until graduation,
it is important to understand when you will actually have to start
returning the loan in monthly payments. usually there is a short
grace period after graduation - for instance a 6 month period for
The Federal Stafford Loan and a 9 month period for The Federal Perkins’
Loan. During the grace period be sure to check the loan’s promissory
note to find out when the first payment is due.
If you need an extension to the grace period, you can sometimes
receive a forbearance or determent - but only for certain kinds
of loans. Be sure not to stop payments before you have been granted
a deferment, otherwise you will have trouble receiving future loans
and also your credit rating will go down.
There is also an option to consolidate a number of loans. This
will cut down the bills you pay each month and also freeze interest
rates. But you must note that not all types of loans can be consolidated.
It is importeny to check this up in advance.
