Question about Loans

Is there a maximum amount of federal loans that you can borrow?

I plan on using some loans to get my MPH. I plan on attending med school afterward. Do I have to pay off my MPH loans before I can borrow more federal loans for medical school? What is the maximum amount that you can borrow?

What is the difference between subsidized and unsubsidized loans? I didn't take up loans during undergrad, so I am trying to figure how this works.

Thanks

The maximum amount you can borrow in federal Stafford loans is $189,125.

There is no interest accruing on subsidized loans while you are in school.
