Private College Student Loan

What happens to my government consolidated student loans if I go back to graduate school?

I am looking into going to graduate school next year and I have recently submitted my paperwork to consolidate my undergraduate student loans with the government. My question is what happens with this new consolidated loan when I go to graduate school? I had both subsidized and unsubsidized loans that were consolidated into one new loan. Can I defer this new loan while in graduate school and will the entire loan accrue unpaid interest while in school or only the portion that was unsubsidized to begin with? Thanks.

1. When you go to graduate school, your loans will go on deferment. Just call them and let them know you are taking half time or more. They will reactivate your account.
