1For
example, if you borrowed $5,000 at a variable interest rate of 3.75%
for a 10-year repayment term, your APR would be 5.12% and your 120
monthly payments would be $60.60. This assumes a 30-month in-school
deferment with interest capitalized once at the start of repayment,
6.50% fee included in the loan amount and a credit-worthy co-signer on
the loan. Additional terms and conditions may apply.

interest rate is variable, based on the Prime Rate as published in The
Wall Street Journal minus .50%, which is 3.75% as of
1/1/2003.
