It was 5.5% for the 2023-24 school year...what's your best guess for this school year?
Federal interest rates are up a full percentage point for undergraduate students, compared to last year.
"Since 2006, all federal student loans have had fixed interest rates. Undergraduate direct loan interest rates haven’t been this high in 16 years, since the 2008-09 academic year. (The standing record is 6.8%, for loans disbursed between 2006 and 2008.) Interest rates on direct graduate loans and PLUS loans have never been this high."
