Federal Student Loans vs. Private Loans
Federal Student Loans
Federal Student Loans are loans that come from the United States government. These loans have low interest rates, and students are not required to begin repaying the borrowed amount until after they have left school or have dropped down to less than half-time status. These loans have flexible repayment options and allow for paused payments (in the form of deferments) if students face economic hardships or decide to go back to school.
Private Loans
Many students need more than their Federal Student Loans provide, so they opt to take additional Private Loans to pay for school. These Private Loans are different from Federal Student Loans in the following ways: higher interest rates, earlier repayment, and less lenient repayment options. Additionally, Private Loans may require the borrower to have a co-signer. In general, these loans are costlier over time due to their higher interest rates.
