Find the repayment schedule that's right for you!
Choose from the following Nellie Mae GradPLUS Loan repayment plans before your first payment:
- Standard repayment: Pay a fixed monthly amount ($50 minimum) for up to 10 years.
- Graduated repayment: Make lower payments at the beginning of your repayment period and increase the amount of your installments over time.
- Income-sensitive repayment: Adjust your monthly payments annually based on your salary.
- Extended repayment: Take up to 25 years to pay off loans totaling $30,000 or more.
GradPLUS borrowers automatically receive in-school deferment while enrolled at least half time, based on school certification.
You may request voluntary, six-month forbearance to align your GradPLUS repayments with your Federal Stafford Loan repayments.
Remember: You may change repayment plans, and the GradPLUS Loan can be prepaid at any time without penalty.
Nellie Mae's calculators can help you choose a repayment schedule.
