Private Student Loan Consolidation
Consolidating your private student loans provides the opportunity for significantly lower monthly payments by combining all of your private student loans into one.

In addition, private student loan consolidation actually improves your credit by paying off your existing private student loans and combining them into one new master loan. The rub? You pay more interest over the life of the loan, but gain many benefits for the price.
Apply With a Co-signer
While not required, we strongly encourage undergraduate students to apply with a creditworthy co-signer if they may have difficulty qualifying for a loan due to limited income and credit history. This may increase an applicant's chances of approval and of possibly obtaining a better interest rate.
Benefits of Private Student Loan Consolidation
- Lower Monthly Payments: Most borrowers can reduce their monthly payment by extending the repayment term of their private student loan debt.
- Reduced Interest Rates: Borrowers with improved credit may often lower their interest rate. Existing loan holders will not reduce your interest rate if your credit has improved.

- Rate Reductions: Borrowers may apply on their own or with a credit-worthy co-signer. Borrower and Co-signers with superior credit may receive lower APR loans. In addition, some consolidation lenders offer rate reductions for automatic debit payments (ACH).
- Repayment Term: Undergraduate borrowers may receive up to a 25 year repayment term which offers the lowest possible monthly payment, and graduate student borrowers may receive up to a 30 year repayment term*.
