n I meet the qualifications for the deferment checked below and request that my loan holder defer repayment of my loan(s):
r While I am enrolled at an eligible school as a FULL-TIME STUDENT. (For borrowers with a FFEL Program loan.)
r While I am enrolled at an eligible school as a LESS THAN FULL-TIME BUT AT LEAST HALF-TIME STUDENT. (For borrowers who, on the date they
signed the promissory note, did not have an outstanding balance on a FFEL Program loan made before July 1, 1987.)
NOTE: Your promissory note or other loan documents may state that a borrower with an outstanding balance on a FFEL Program loan made prior to
July 1, 1993, must receive another loan in order to qualify for a half-time student deferment. This requirement was eliminated by the Higher Education
Amendments of 1998. Effective October 1, 1998, no FFEL Program borrower who is eligible for a deferment based on enrollment as at least a half-time
student is required to receive another loan in order to qualify for this deferment.
SECTION 3: BORROWER UNDERSTANDINGS AND CERTIFICATIONS
n I understand that: (1) I am not required to make payments of loan principal during my deferment. Interest will not be charged on my subsidized loan(s)
during my deferment. However, interest will be charged on my unsubsidized loan(s). (2) I have the option of making interest payments on my unsubsidized
loan(s) during my deferment. (3) I may choose to make interest payments by checking the box below. My loan holder may capitalize interest that I do not pay
during the deferment period.
r I wish to make interest payments on my unsubsidized loan(s) during my deferment.
(4) My deferment will begin on the date the condition that qualifies me for a deferment began, as certified by the authorized official who completes Section
4 of this form. (5) My deferment will end on the earlier of the date that I no longer meet the condition that qualifies me for the deferment, or the ending
date of that condition as certified by the authorized official. (6) If my deferment does not cover all my past due payments, my loan holder may grant me a
forbearance for all payments due before the begin date of my deferment or—if the period for which I am eligible for a deferment has ended—a forbearance
for all payments due at the time my deferment request is processed. (7) If I am eligible for a post-deferment grace period on loans made before October
1, 1981, my loan holder may grant me a forbearance on my other loans for this period so that I can begin repayment of all my loans at the same time. I
understand that my loan holder may capitalize the interest that accrues on my other loans during the six-month period and that this will increase the principal
balance of my other loans. (8) My loan holder may grant me a forbearance on my loans for up to 60 days, if necessary, for the collection and processing of
documentation related to my deferment request. Interest that accrues during the forbearance will not be capitalized.
n I certify that: (1) The information I provided in Sections 1 and 2 above is true and correct. (2) I will provide additional documentation to my loan holder, as
required, to support my deferment status. (3) I will notify my loan holder immediately when the condition(s) that qualified me for the deferment ends. (4) I
have read, understand, and meet the eligibility criteria of the deferment for which I have applied.

SECTION 5: INSTRUCTIONS FOR COMPLETING THE FORM
Type or print using dark ink. Report dates as month-day-year (MM-DD-YYYY). For example, ‘January 31, 2006’ = ‘01-31-2006’. An authorized school official
must either (A) complete Section 4, or (B) attach the school’s own enrollment certification report listing the required information. If you need help completing
this form, contact your loan holder.
Return the completed form and any required documentation to the address shown in Section 7.
SECTION 6: DEFINITIONS FOR IN-SCHOOL DEFERMENT REQUEST
n An authorized certifying official for an In-School Deferment is an authorized official of the school where I am/was enrolled as a full-time or at least
half-time student.
n Capitalization is the addition of unpaid interest to the principal balance of my loan. This will increase the principal and the total cost of my loan.
n A deferment is a period during which I am entitled to postpone repayment of the principal balance of my loan(s). The federal government pays the interest
that accrues during an eligible deferment for all subsidized Federal Stafford Loans and for Federal Consolidation Loans for which the Consolidation Loan
application was received by my loan holder (1) on or after January 1, 1993, but before August 10, 1993, (2) on or after August 10, 1993, if it includes only
Federal Stafford Loans that were eligible for federal interest subsidy, or (3) on or after November 13, 1997, for that portion of the consolidation loan that paid
a subsidized FFEL Loan or a subsidized Federal Direct Loan. I am responsible for the interest that accrues during this period on all other FFEL Program loans.
n The Federal Family Education Loan (FFEL) Program includes Federal Stafford Loans (both subsidized and unsubsidized), Federal Supplemental Loans for
Students (SLS), Federal PLUS Loans, and Federal Consolidation Loans.
n Forbearance means permitting the temporary cessation of payments, allowing an extension of time for making payments, or temporarily accepting smaller
payments than previously scheduled. I am responsible for the interest that accrues on my loan(s) during a forbearance. If I do not pay the interest that
accrues, the interest may be capitalized.
n The holder of my FFEL Program loan(s) may be a lender, guaranty agency, secondary market, or the U.S. Department of Education.
