There are two types of Federal Direct Loans available to students:

1. Subsidized Loan - awarded to students with demonstrated financial need as determined by Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) results. The federal government pays the interest on the loan while the student is in school at least half-time, during the grace period, and during deferment periods. Repayment begins six months after leaving school or dropping below half-time enrollment. 

2. Unsubsidized Loan - not based on financial need.  The borrower is responsible for paying the interest on the loan from the time the loan is disbursed. Students can choose to pay the interest while attending school or can allow the interest to accrue.
