ALT Six-Month Plan After Graduation STEP 1: Graduation: Once you graduate, your federal student loans enter repayment. In most cases, you will have a six-month grace period. STEP 2: Loan Servicer Contact: Your loan servicer will provide you with information about when your first payment is due, the number and frequency of payments, and the amount of each payment. STEP 3: Grace Period: The grace period gives you time to get financially settled. Use this time to explore repayment plans and to research student loan forgiveness options. STEP 4: Choosing a Repayment Plan: Some plans offer affordable monthly payments while others can help you pay off your student loans faster. Use our Loan Simulator to find a plan that matches your goals. STEP 5: First Payment: Set up an account on your loan servicer's website to begin making payments. If you enroll in auto pay, you may receive a 0.25% interest rate deduction.
