Student loans are loans offered to students to assist in payment of the costs of professional education. These loans usually carry a lower interest rate than other loans and are usually issued by the government. Often they are supplemented by student grants which do not have to be repaid.
While included in the term "financial aid" higher education loans differ from scholarships and grants in that they must be paid back. They come in several varieties in the United States.
Federal student loans made to students directly: No payments while enrolled in at least half time status. If a student drops below half time status, the account will go into its 6 month grace period. If the student re-enrolls in at least half time status, the loans will be deferred, but when they drop below half time again they will no longer have their grace period. Amounts are quite limited as well.

If you need to consolidate Stafford Loans, PLUS Loans, or
Federal Perkins Loans into one single debt, then the Federal Direct Student
Loan Program or FDLP may be just what you need for your hard to manage college
loans. The best thing is that these loans are fixed interest for the LIFE of
the loan. You can’t beat that.
In addition, with consolidation loans having a longer term
than other conventional student loans, you can choose terms from 10-30 years.
This means lower payments and less interest paid over time. Certain
post-graduation grace periods and special forgiveness circumstances are not
carried over in the consolidation loan. With flexible repayment options and no
fees, charges, or prepayment penalties, why not get a student loan
consolidation. There are also no credit checks or co-signers required.
