Can you consolidate all your student loans into one loan? Even if they are through different lenders?
Chantel B asked:
I have a bunch and I would prefer to pay one lender a month instead of four lenders. It just easier and more organized that way? But I don’t know if it is possible. I would love some info on this. Thanks to all who reply.
Yes. I have two from Sallie Mae and two from my state’s student loan. It’s sub and unsub loans. When you graduate or leave school for some other reason you have the option of consolidating at that time. But since you can consolidate only when you graduate or leave school it’s best to hold off until you’re done with a degree. Then you can work on getting a low interest rate based on your credit and the current ones you have.
Hello,
I live in the US and i really have never seen goodness shown to me this
much in my life as i am a struggling mum with three kids and i have been going
through really rough times in my life and my name is Helen
Peters and in all this hard times, a worse incident occured in my life as i
lost my job which was my only means of survival and things became really bad as
i had bills to pay and my last son suffered a knee injury incurred when he fell
from a tree house and the doctors informed me that he needed a surgical
operation for his knee so he could walk again and at this point, life was
useless to me as i have no family and no one to run to and each night, i will
sit down and cry till the break of dun until one day, i read an advert on yahoo
answers of man that stated that he could help people in my shoes with loans and
in my desperate situation, i had no choice but i had to try and so shocking and
suprising, it was like an impossibility becoming a reality, i got a loan of
$75,000 USD even with my bad credit within 48 hours and my sons surgery was done
and thank GOD it was successful and now, i am okay and living in comfort with my
kids and i said to my self, i have never ever seen this kind of wonder in life
and i decided i will tell it to the whole wild world and i need every one to
thank GOD for Mr Patrick Harvey, the man GOD used to rescue me and my family
even when all hope had been lost and gone and i will say to every one, no matter
how dark and sinful the world is today, there are still GOD fearing and reliable
people on earth and if you are in my former situation or require a loan
legitimately, i will advice you contact this loan lender and you can reach him
via and i want you all to pray for this man for me.
Yes you can HOWEVER, if you do so you lose all the incentives. So if you get a 1% reduction for automatic payments you lose that. If you get a reduction for no late payments within a certain time frame you will lose that. Your interest rate will not be as low as well. Your first interest rate is a set rate that everyone gets your next one if you consolidate will be based off your credit score. Ultimately you will pay more in the long run. I guess you have to look at your situation and see what is the best option for you. I plan to finish school and then go to nursing school part-time and work full-time. I will be able to pay for my classes since they will be cheaper at the junior college and I’m going to save money to pay on my loans. That way when I’m done I will be able to pay a good chunk of them off without having had to pay any interest at all.
