Direct Subsidized Loan

<p>When does loan interest start accruing?</p>

<p>A number of months after you graduate. I can’t recall the specifics, and I think it differs from which types of loans (Federal Perkins vs Stafford), but it’s something like 6-9 months after you graduate. You have to check the terms and conditions of your own individual loans.</p>

<p>I think its 6 months for direct subsidized loan and 9 months for federal perkins.</p>

<p>6 months after graduation for Subsidized Stafford loans.</p>
