You can't get the "in-school" deferment, where you could if you were attending a school in the US or Carib school that has stafford loans. The only deferment you can use, is the "financial hardships" deferment, where you have to keep deferring the loan due to financial reasons of not being able to pay for the loan

but..... if you're in the Davenport Program, you can use the "in-school" deferment.

this is all per our Financial Aid Department

Just to add on a point, that since we're not a Title IV school and don't qualify for deferment, when you do your financial hardship you can only do it for I think 12 months at a time and only twice.
