💡
Two salaries, two phases Your current stipend sets your low IBR payment during training. Your expected attending salary determines your IBR payment for the remaining PSLF months and your debt-to-income ratio. Both are required to model your full loan journey.
Debt-to-Income Ratio
What is this? Your total federal loan balance ÷ expected attending salary. At ≥0.5× with a nonprofit employer, PSLF almost always wins. At <0.3×, aggressive payoff may compete.
1.0×
At ≥0.5× with a nonprofit employer, PSLF almost certainly wins.
⚠️
High Vulnerability ConfigurationYou are modelling a high debt-to-income layout (>2.0×) in a for-profit environment. Forfeiting federal PSLF protections here carries high compounding interest risk. We recommend a custom stress-test with an advisor.
🔄Refinancing Scenario
⚠️
Refinancing is Permanent and Irreversible Once you refinance federal loans to private, PSLF, IBR, and all federal income-driven protections are gone forever. We model both paths so you see the exact cost of each decision.
