Can you tell me about an in-school deferment if I am enrolled in college more than half-time?
With that option, in most cases your loan will be placed into a deferment automatically based on enrollment information reported by your school, and your loan servicer will notify you that the deferment has been granted.
Are there any extra considerations if I am actually attending school and am active duty military at this time?
You may be eligible for this deferment if you are on active duty military service in connection with a war, military operation, or national emergency.
