(C) 72 equal monthly installments for students who
received grants for more than two years, but less than three years;
or
(D) 48 equal monthly installments for students who
received grants for less than two years.
(3) The installment is based on the amount owed the
department and must be paid each month. Repayments may be made in
fewer than the required number of installments.
(4) A student will not be required to begin payments
until after the student's expected date of graduation as determined
on the date of the determination of default.
(5) A student who completes an eligible degree and
does not work for the department for two academic years immediately
following the date of the student's receipt of an eligible degree

amounts for a student who defaults and graduates with an eligible
degree and honors the original agreement to work for the department
in an eligible profession for at least two academic years commencing
immediately upon graduation.
(7) The department may temporarily reduce or defer
the required payments or extend the prescribed repayment period, upon
approval of the executive director, if a student submits a formal
request, demonstrates his or her inability to pay due to catastrophic
illness or family emergency, and follows all conditional grant requirements
during the deferment period. Any reduction, deferral, or extension
will not relieve a student of his or her responsibility to repay all
funds.

notify the appropriate credit bureaus or agencies if a student fails
to repay the department or fails to adhere to the terms of the conditional
grant agreement.
