What that debt costs to repay. Typical debt here is about $12,080. At 7% over 10 years — the standard federal plan — that is roughly $140 a month, about $16,831 repaid in total, of which $4,751 is interest.
Stretch the same balance over 25 years and the payment drops to $85 a month — but the total climbs to $25,614, roughly $8,783 more in interest. A smaller payment is not a smaller loan.
