Confused regarding difference in “Due Date” and “Estimated Start Date” listed online?
I’m about to start paying off my loans as I graduated this past spring (May 2024). Online (my servicer is EdFinancial) it says that my due date is 11/10, which is when I believe my grace period ends. But when I set up auto pay, it also lists “estimated start date” as 12/10 and that my auto pay won’t pay out until then. I set up this auto pay a while back. What is the difference here? Will my loans begin accruing interest on 11/10 but I don’t need to make my first payment until 12/10? That’s the point of calling that the due date then and not the other way around? Very confused, and would appreciate any guidance. Thanks in advance!
Edit: I also just got an email from EdFinancial saying my minimum monthly payment is due 1/10/2025. What the hell is going on?
