There are serious consequences for defaulting on a student loan that include loss of being eligible to apply for a forbearance or deferment, having the account turned over to a collection agency, having your tax refunds offset or withheld and applied to the student loan, inability to obtain additional financial aid, or suspend professional licenses.

The Federal Government will pay any unpaid interest on subsidized loan during authorized deferment periods.

If a student's monthly IBR payment amount does not cover the interest that accrues on his/her loans each month, the government will pay any unpaid accrued interest on the Subsidized Stafford Loans (either Direct Loan or FFEL) for up to three consecutive years from the date the student began repaying his/her loans under IBR.
