Federal Student Loan Consolidation
After graduation, consolidation loans can
help ease the burden of repayment by bundling all your student
loans into a single loan with one lender and one repayment
plan. Both students and parents are eligible to consolidate
federal student loans.

* Please be aware that while we continue to offer Private Student Loans and Private Consolidation Loans, NextStudent is not currently able to accept any new PLUS, Grad PLUS, Stafford, or Federal Consolidation Loan applications.
On October 1, 2007, legislation went into effect that cut $21 billion in subsidies to FFELP lenders like NextStudent. We have been searching, and continue to search, for avenues that would allow us to keep offering FFELP loans. But at this point, until market and regulatory conditions change, we find ourselves forced to suspend our federal education loan programs.
We value your business, and we want to make sure you’re able to get the money you need to pay for school. We encourage you to take advantage of college scholarships and your available federal financing options. But if you’re still in need of a parent or student loan, please give us a call, and we’ll do what we can to help. |
*Requires a consolidation loan balance of
at least $15,000 and the consolidation cannot include any
defaulted loans.
*Provisions within the pending legislation would change the fee structure and yields for lenders that make federal educational loans. It is not known at this time on which date the new provisions will take effect, nor whether they would be applied to loan applications that had been submitted prior to that date but not yet funded. NextStudent will not offer the interest rate discount benefits for those applications that are subject to the new provisions. NextStudent will make its best efforts to process all applications it receives prior to the date the new provisions take effect, but cannot guarantee that your application will be processed in time for the interest rate discount benefits to apply. |
