Student Loan Repayment FAQs

What is an Income-Driven Repayment (IDR) Plan?

Income-Driven Repayment plans adjust your monthly federal student loan payment based on your income and family size. Payments are typically capped at a percentage of discretionary income and may offer loan forgiveness after 20–25 years.

What is the SAVE Repayment Plan?

The SAVE Plan is a federal student loan repayment option designed to lower monthly payments for eligible borrowers. It replaces the REPAYE plan and offers interest benefits to prevent balances from growing.

Can I qualify for Public Service Loan Forgiveness (PSLF)?

Borrowers working full-time for qualifying government or non-profit organizations may be eligible for Public Service Loan Forgiveness after making 120 qualifying payments under an eligible repayment plan.

Should I refinance my federal student loans?

Refinancing may lower your interest rate, but it converts federal loans into private loans, removing access to federal benefits such as IDR and forgiveness programs. Always compare carefully before refinancing.
