Student loans and the AT

At the time that I will be hiking, my student loans will be in full repayment swing. I’m graduating this semester, so I still have 8 months to pay off as much as I can. I am just going to put as much as I can afford toward my student debt, and put the rest toward saving up for the trip. I’m planning on just making the minimum payment while actually hiking, or maybe the minimum + $20, just so I know I’m working down that principle some. I'm also going to budget for 7 or 8 months of paying that loan payment, so I have some cushion when I get back and have some time to find another

I was also looking into the various types of repayment plans. We shall see how it all pans out...
