Update: On July 18, 2024, a Federal Court issued a stay preventing the Department of Education from operating the Saving on a Valuable Education (SAVE) Plan. We are assessing the ruling and will be in touch directly with borrowers about how this will affect them.


The Saving on a Valuable Education (SAVE) Plan is the newest incomedriven repayment (IDR) plan. Like other IDR plans, the SAVE Plan calculates your monthly payment amount based on your income and family size. In addition, the SAVE Plan has unique benefits that will lower payments for many borrowers.
