		<description>Check with the lender to see what options you may have with lowering the interest rate.  Direct Loans allows you to save 0.25% off your interest rate if you sign up to have your payments withdrawn via electronic funds transfer when your loan is in a repayment status.  

If you want to save more, you can always extend the life of the loan.  I used the graduated plan which is set for 15 years rather than 10.  The monthly payment amount starts low, then increases every year or two.  Before I changed the repayment status, I was paying $180/mo under the regular 10-year plan.  When I switched to the graduated play, my payments started at $88.75 and will increase by $20 every couple of years.  It will be more interest down the road and a longer pay-off period, but it won&#039;t financially hurt me while repaying it back.&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;References : &lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;</description>
