Payment Allocations

How are your monthly payments allocated?

Payment Allocation

The payment is allocated as follows: fees first, followed by interest, and then principal. For borrowers with multiple loans, one payment can be submitted and allocated according to your preferences or specified via online payment.

Interest

The amount accrued (at the agreed interest rate) since the last payment or since disbursement if no payments have been made.

Principal

The principal is the original amount of money borrowed.  If the repayment plan includes any periods of deferment (where the amount due for that month is $0), interest that accrues during deferment is capitalized (added to principal) once the deferment period ends
