When do federal loans disburse and begin to accrue interest?

Post by cesium » Fri Jan 15, 2016 3:21 pm

I am considering taking the federal direct $20,500 (unsubsidized) loan for the 2015-2016 school year, which has been approved by the government and my law school. If I accept it, when does it disburse, and when does it begin to accrue interest? Specifically, may I choose to accept it months after the semester starts, say in April?
