Srdjanpav | E+ | Getty ImagesHow interest accrues on loansDirect Subsidized Loans are available to undergraduate students who demonstrate a financial need. Unlike that of subsidized loans, interest on unsubsidized loans starts accruing immediately upon disbursement and accrues even during deferments or grace periods, making this debt more expensive. The term Stafford Loan is an informal way of referring to Direct Subsidized Loans and Direct Unsubsidized Loans made via the Direct Loan Program. It also refers to subsidized or unsubsidized Federal Stafford Loans made via the Federal Family Education Loan, or FFEL, program. During that time, interest wasn't accruing on any loans — meaning unsubsidized loans essentially became subsidized debt for some borrowers.
