Can the Federal Direct Parent PLUS Loan payments continue to be deferred?
As long as the student listed on the Parent PLUS loan is still enrolled at least on a half-time basis, the Federal Direct Parent PLUS Loan allows for in-school deferment. Please note: For unsubsidized loans, interest will continue to accrue during deferment and will be added to the principle balance of the loan after the deferment period has ended. We recommend you consult your school’s financial aid office to learn more about deferred loans.
