If you pay back a subsidized loan are there any fees?

If you're offered $5000 in subsidized loans, and you repay $5000 when you're done with school before 6 months, would you be paying additional money? (More than you took out)?

Context: Im being offered loans and I'm debating on whether it's a good idea to take out the subsidized loans just incase and then repay them in full once I'm done with school. But I don't want to pay back more than I took out.

    Subsidized loans begin to accrue interest as soon as you cease to be enrolled, so if you wait until the end of the 6 month grace period, you would owe a small amount of interest (how much would depend on how much you borrowed).

    Ask the people offering the subsidized loan. The answer varies by subsidizer.
