Millions of student loan borrowers need to choose a new plan — here’s everything you need to know
Millions of student loan borrowers are required to choose new repayment plans starting July 1. The recent changes, driven by President Trump's One Big Beautiful Bill Act, have reduced repayment options to two plans, which may significantly affect monthly payments. Borrowers are advised to carefully consider their income and debt to avoid potential financial strain.
- ▪Starting July 1, millions of borrowers must switch to new repayment plans as payments resume after a two-year pause.
- ▪The new repayment options include the Income-Based Repayment plan and the new Repayment Assistance Plan, which has graduated payments based on income.
- ▪Borrowers who do not select a new plan will be automatically placed into the standard IBR plan, which has been modified from its previous terms.
