About Loans
What's the difference?
Federally-subsidized student loans that are need-based
The government pays the interest on a subsidized loan while you are in school.
Unsubsidized student loans that are not need-based
The unsubsidized loan accrues interest while you are in school.
Interest rates for both types of loans are the same. Check with the Financial Aid Office to find out the current interest rate.
Both types loans require you to begin making payments six months after you stop attending school.
