If your loans have a standard, six-month grace period, your first payment will be due approximately six months after you graduate or drop to below half-time enrollment. Make sure Edfinancial has all of your current contact information and explore the different repayment plans and how to make your payments.
There are multiple ways to make a payment. Consider registering for Auto Pay, Edfinancial's automatic-debit payment program, in your online account. With Auto Pay, your student loan payments are automatically debited from your checking or savings account each month. Auto Pay may also reduce your interest rate!
You will generally have up to ten years to repay your federal student loan, but you may be eligible to extend your repayment term up to 25 years or repay your loans based on your income.

Various repayment plans are available to help you manage your student loan debt. If you are having trouble making payments, there are options, such as Income-Driven Repayment Plans, which are designed to reduce your monthly payment amount. In general, the lower your monthly payment, the more interest you will pay over the life of your loan(s). Student loans accrue interest on a daily basis, so the longer you take to pay it back, the more interest you will accrue.
Our customer service representatives will help you determine the best plan for you and help you apply for your new repayment plan. You may also log into your online account to explore various repayment options and to see if you qualify for a reduced payment.
Representatives are available Monday 8am - 9pm, Tuesday - Wednesday 8am - 8pm, Thursday - Friday 8am - 6pm Eastern Time
