Partial Interest Payment
After the in-school and grace periods, any unpaid interest will be repaid along with principal. For example, a borrower of a $10,000.00 loan will pay $25.00 per month for 52 months (46 months in school and 6 months in grace). Following that time period, if that borrower selected a 10-year repayment plan and received a periodic interest rate of 8.48%, the borrower would have an APR of 7.66%, monthly payments of $148.38 for 120 months, and a total amount repaid of $19,105.51. The borrower in this sample qualified for a 0.25% Direct Debit benefit for the entirety of the repayment period and a 0.50% Graduation benefit applied at the end of the 52-month partial interest period.
