  • Graduated Repayment Plan: Payments start out low and increase during the loan period.- usually every two years. This is a good option if your income is low when you graduate but will increase quickly.

  • Extended Repayment Plan: Allows you to stretch your repayment over a period of up to 25 years depending on your loan amount. To be eligible for this program you must have an outstanding balance of over $30,000.
