Hi,

I need to go back and complete my pre-reqs. Since I just graduated and am still in town, I will attempt them at the same UG school. It's going to be a expensive so I will most likely have to take out loans. If I get into medical school would I have to start repayment of federal loans while in medical school? Or can I choose to defer them because of graduate school? This is new to me since I have never had to deal with loans before and have no debt from UG.

If stafford loans, I think they would be defered.

I believe stafford loans are deferred whenever you are at least a half-time student. You have to check on the exact credit hours needed per semester, but if you are fulltime, you'll be fine.
