The federal government pays the interest while you are in school at least half time (6 credit hours). You may receive the Federal Direct Subsidized Loan for a timeframe equivalent to 150% of the length of your degree or certificate, provided that all other eligibility criteria are met.
The major differences are interest and how much you can borrow. For subsidized loans, you wonât be charged interest while youâre enrolled in school and during your grace period (about six months). For unsubsidized loans, interest starts accruing (accumulating) from the date of your first loan disbursement. For both types of loans, the amount you can borrow is determined by your school, and they use several pieces of information to calculate your aid.
