Attention USD PILAS students. Student loan update for our community:
Starting July 1, 2026, federal student loan borrowers enrolled in auto pay can receive a 1% interest rate reduction.
To qualify, enroll in auto pay by September 30, 2026. The reduced rate will apply through June 30, 2028. Students already enrolled do not need to reapply.
Auto pay also helps you stay eligible for benefits like income-driven repayment plans and Public Service Loan Forgiveness (PSLF).
