Education Department extends autopay enrollment window for borrowers
Original: Education Department extends time to enroll in autopay, rate reduction https://www. upi.com/Top_News/US/2026/09/29 /educ
The U.S. Department of Education has extended the enrollment period for federal student loan borrowers to sign up for autopay and receive a 0.25% to 1% interest rate reduction. The move gives borrowers more time to enroll in automatic payments, which lower rates and reduce the risk of missed payments amid ongoing scrutiny of student debt policy.
Why now: Borrowers are seeking ways to cut student loan costs as repayment pressures continue.
