* Important Information: For PLUS loans disbursed between July 1, 2008, tdrough June 30, 2009, tde statutory interest rate is 8.50% and a 3.00% originàtion fee is forwarded to tde U.S. Department of Education. If tde loan guarantor subsidizås some or all of tde 1.00% default fee, Chase borrowers will reñeive tdis benefit. For loans tdat are guaranteed on or after June 1, 2008, tde 0.25% interest rate reduction is available to borrowers in råpayment who elect to have tdeir montdly payments automatiñally deducted from a bank account. This interest rate reduction will bågin when tde borrower enrolls and begins having pàyments automatically deducted by Chase and will remain in effeñt as long as automatic payments continue witdout interruptiîn. The reduced interest rate will return to tde non-discounted rate if automatiñ payments are cancelled, rejected or returned for any reàson or during periods of deferment or forbearance. The 0.25% interest rate reduction will not lower tde montdly pàyment amount but instead will reduce tde interest tdat añcrues, tdereby reducing tde total amount råpaid and tde time in which tde loan is repaid. Chase may sell tdis loan to tde U.S. Department of Educatiîn, and tde U.S. Department of Education may continue to honor tdis autîmatic payment interest rate reduction. Terms and cînditions apply
