Question

33/35
what is a student loan that the federal government pays interest on as long as the student is in school at least half-time?
direct subsidized loan
expected family contribution (efc)
direct unsubsidized loan
direct plus loans

Explanation:

This question refers to a federal student loan type where the government covers interest while the student is enrolled at least half-time. Direct Subsidized Loans fit this definition: the federal government pays the interest during in-school (half-time+) status, as well as grace and deferment periods. The other options do not match: EFC is a financial aid eligibility measure, Direct Unsubsidized Loans require the student to pay all interest, and Direct Plus Loans are for graduate students/parents with no government-covered in-school interest.

Answer:

Direct Subsidized Loan
