Student Loan Debt Consolidation – An Overview

In a student loan debt consolidation loan, you can combine your federal student loans into one loan with a single monthly payment. Repayment of a student loan debt consolidation loan may be significantly lower than the payment required under the standard 10-year repayment option. The Federal Family Education Loans (FFEL) Program, banks, secondary markets, credit unions and other lenders provide the student loan debt consolidation loan. The William D. Ford Federal Direct Loan (Direct Loan) Program, the federal government determines the student loan debt consolidation loan.

Most federal education loans are eligible for inclusion in a student loan debt consolidation loan, including subsidized and unsubsidized Direct and FFEL Stafford Loans, SLS, Federal Perkins Loans, Federal Nursing loans & Health Education Assistance Loans. But private education loans are not eligible for inclusion in a student loan debt consolidation loan.

To find out which loans may be eligible for inclusion in a student loan debt consolidation loan, you should contact the Direct loan Origination Center’s Consolidation Department if you are looking for a direct student loan debt consolidation loan. Contact a participating FFEL lender if you are applying for a FFEL student loan debt consolidation loan.

It should be noted that you still have the eligibility for student loan debt consolidation loans after your graduation, leaving school, or drop below half-time enrollment. You can also get a student loan debt consolidation loan when you are at school. However, you must attend at least half time, and have at least one Direct Loan or FFEL in an “in-school period ‘which usually means that you have been continuously registered at least half time since the loan was paid. There are some conditions that must be met for you to qualify for student loan debt consolidation loan, particularly if you are delinquent or in default, your loan holder will be able to give you all the necessary information.

If the same holder holds all the FFEL loans you want to consolidate, you must obtain a student loan debt consolidation loan from that holder, unless you are unable to get a loan with income-sensitive repayment terms acceptable to you. To be eligible for a William D. Ford direct student loan debt consolidation loan, you should have a direct Stafford subsidized or low-interest loan that’ll be included in the debt of student loan consolidation loan or have at least one Federal Family Education Loan (FFEL) programme Stafford subsidised or subsidised loan.
