  • avoid capitalized interest —
    designed to help shorten the amount of time it takes to pay off the loan, the Smart Option Student Loan requires interest-only payments while in school and during the six-month separation period to avoid capitalized interest.

    Other loan programs have you pay nothing until after you graduate. The problem is that these interest charge interest during this time and add it to your loan monthly or quarterly. You will then be paying interest on your interest. That adds to your loan amount - which can cost you plenty by the time you graduate.
