Answer: a.

Explanation: Deferment lets borrowers temporarily postpone repayment (commonly while enrolled in school), which is important because many students cannot afford regular loan payments while studying. Note: some types of loans (e.g., unsubsidized federal loans and most private loans) accrue interest during deferment, and deferment eligibility and application rules vary.
