Important terms: "subsidized" vs. "unsubsidized"

Subsidized loans
Under a subsidized loan, the government pays (subsidizes) the interest on the loan while you are enrolled at least half time in a college.
Unsubsidized loans
Under an unsubsidized loan, interest begins accruing as soon as the loan is disbursed into your student account. Payments on the loan (and interest) are deferred while you are enrolled at least half time in a college/university. However, during this time, interest is still accruing and is being added to the principal balance of the loan. You have the option to pay the interest as it accrues.
