Suppose that you borrow $5500 for your first year and $6500 for your second year (the maximum amounts for a dependent student), as federal direct student loans at a 4.29% interest rate. Suppose that each loan begins on September 1 of its year, that you finish college in four years, that you do not pay the accruing interest in the meantime, and that you begin repayment on December 1 after graduation. You also borrow $7500 for each of your third and fourth years, again on September 1, all at a 4.29% interest rate. You finish college in four years, and you begin repayment on December 1 after graduation. What is your total debt then, and how much of that is interest?

Suppose that you borrow $5500 for your first year and $6500 for your second year (the maximum amounts for a dependent student), as federal direct student loans at a 4.29% interest rate. Suppose that each loan begins on September 1 of its year, that you finish college in four years, that you do not pay the accruing interest in the meantime, and that you begin repayment on December 1 after graduation.

Your total debt is $5500 + $1002.79 + $6500 + $906.26 = $13,909.05, including a total of $1909.05 in interest.
