I’m looking into consolidating my student loans but I’m nervous about being stuck with one general payment plan. Do I have any other options?

There is no need to be nervous. When you consolidate your student loans you have an option of choosing the payment plan that is right for you.

Payment plans include:

**Standard Repayment
You pay the same amount each month for the life of the loan

**Graduated 2-year Repayment
For the first two years your monthly payments are lowered and then they slightly increase for the remaining of the life of the loan

**Graduated 5-year Repayment
For the first two years your monthly payments are lowered, they increase slightly for three years thereafter, and after five years are increased slightly more

**Income-sensitive Repayment
Monthly payments are based on you income.

As you could see there are several options set up to help you.

And if you ever ran into a time in which you were unable to make payments, you could go into forbearance. Forbearance allows you to suspend your payments on you loans for up to 36 months.

Take a look on this website. It should answer anymore questions or concerns you may have.

Student's Loan are granted for the studies and normally the repayment begins when u r getting the job,after completing the studies, Other than this general repayments u can even pay in a lump sum when ever u get the money but the schedule repayment should not be stopped.

THANKS
