BIG YANK 30342 Posted July 16, 2007 Report Share Posted July 16, 2007 I am in graduate school and all of my student loans are in deferment. I want to buy a house. Will that debt be counted against what I can afford even though I am not yet required to make payments as long as I am in school? I keep hearing people at work say conflicting things.
