Yeah. There are two kinds of loan as part of the federal loan program. Subsidized and unsubsidized. You get granted a pool of loans from both kinds when you apply for aid. The unsubsidized loans accrue interest the whole time. The subsidized loans are equally horrifying mostly because the interest is accruing, it’s just being paid for by the taxpayers on your behalf. Neither public loan actually accrues no interest while you are in school
