What Does the Simple Student Loan Calculator Do?
This calculator helps you understand the monthly payments required to pay off your student loan within a set time frame, or it can calculate the total interest you’ll pay over the life of the loan based on a provided monthly payment. By inputting your current loan balance, the remaining loan term, and the interest rate, you can either determine your monthly payment or leave the payment field blank to calculate it automatically.
Key Features:
- Loan Balance: The current remaining balance of your student loan.
- Remaining Term: The number of years left to repay the loan, which is converted into months for accurate calculations.
- Interest Rate: The annual interest rate on your student loan.
- Monthly Payment: If you know how much you can pay each month, enter this amount. Otherwise, the calculator will determine it for you.
How It Works:
- Calculate Monthly Payment: If you don’t provide a monthly payment, the calculator determines how much you need to pay each month to clear the loan by the end of the term.
- Total Interest: See how much interest you’ll pay over the life of the loan, helping you understand the long-term cost of your student debt.
- Total Payments: Know exactly what you’ll end up paying over the life of the loan, including both principal and interest.
