Standard
Repayment
Standard repayment is the most
common payment schedule option and is the option assigned
to you if you do not select another plan. Loan(s)
are repaid in equal installments over a ten-year period.
Your monthly payment is determined by the amount of
the loan and the length of the repayment period. Generally,
this option is the fastest and most economical method
of repayment.
