What that debt costs to repay. Typical debt here is about $18,000. At 7% over 10 years — the standard federal plan — that is roughly $209 a month, about $25,079 repaid in total, of which $7,079 is interest.
Stretch the same balance over 25 years and the payment drops to $127 a month — but the total climbs to $38,166, roughly $13,087 more in interest. A smaller payment is not a smaller loan.

An estimate, not financial advice. Straight amortization at a fixed rate: it assumes every payment is made on time and the rate never changes, and it leaves out fees, interest that accrues while you’re still enrolled, and any forgiveness or income-driven plan.
