Hi. I have a private student loan through Citibank. I am still in accredited online school full-time in California--live in Canada-- yet they started demanding repayment several months ago. My question is, "Do I have to pay back this private student loan while I am still attending school full-time?"
I explained to citibank that I am in school F/T and that I am only receiving student loans, and that I can't afford to pay back any loans until I graduate. They insisted this makes no difference--I must pay up.They harassed my mother by phone, and threatened default. They finally settled on back-dated forebearance a few months ago. It runs out in soon. I don't know what to do. Thanks for your help.
