LoanThe Direct Loan Servicing website (www.dl.ed.gov) allows those with
federal students loans to pay them online quickly and easily. The site
offers loan consolidations, where two or more federal loans can be
combined to create a new loan with one low monthly payment. Those who
receive statements in the mail can switch to online paperless billing.
There is also the ability to click a link and translate the webpages
into Spanish. The site has three main areas: Your Account, Question
Center and Forms.
The "Your Account" area offers information about a loan, such as account
balance, payment history and billing options. Payments can be made
online for free for up to six months in advance. There is the option to
enroll in automatic monthly payments and lower a loan's interest rate.
The "Question Center" area has a list of frequently asked questions
(FAQs) relating to the website. It has answers to questions regarding
the use of a PIN, security and the type of information available on the
site. There are also questions and answers about forms, such as how to
download, print and save them. Information about web browsers is
available, such as having the correct browser and settings and
optimizing the screen.
The "Forms" area of Dl.ed.gov offers a list of deferment forms that can
be viewed and downloaded, as long as the computer has Acrobat Reader
installed. Deferment forms are forms that need to be completed if a loan
payer needs to temporarily postpone repayment for a valid reason.
Deferment is valid for many reasons, including economic hardship,
military or Peace Corps deployment, unemployment, economic hardship,
temporary diasbility, maternity leave or becoming a full-time working
mother. There are also loan consolidation forms, grant forms and a
variety of others.
