Student Consolidation Loan Program

ollege students who are in need of paying for their education, student loans are a great source of financial aid. The problem is that students leave college with allot of debt. Also they usually have many loans from assorted lenders, which means they are paying back multiple loans each month. Loan Consolidation can be a great solution to this problem.

Loan consolidation will allow you to take all of your loans and put them into one loan and one payment. Think of it as refinancing a home mortgage. You consolidate all of your student loans together, and all of the balances of your existing school loans are paid off, the balance will go into one consolidated loan. The advantage to this is that you have only one student loan to pay off.

Consolidating your loans can offers many benefits such as, locking in a fixed, lower rate for the length of your loan. This is advantageous because it can save you allot of money over the term of the loan. Also you will incur smaller monthly payments, which will allow you to have more funds available for other things. Also these types of loans are very flexible with prepayment penalties, charges and no fees. It is important to understand that you will not need a credit check or a co-signer for this type of consolidated loan.

The only time you would not want to consolidate is if you are close to paying off your current loans. However, if you are having trouble making monthly payments and would like to take advantage of a lower interest rate, this can be a great thing for you.

The eligibility for this type of loan is, your loans are over $7500, you have more than one lender, you are in the grace period or have started repaying the loans, you have not already started a consolidation program.
