			<title>Open Question: Is 9.5% ridiculously high for a student loan consolidation...should I take it?</title>
			<link>http://bestconsolidationstudentloan.com/consolidation-interest-loan-rate-student/is-9.5-ridiculously-high-a-student-loan.html</link>
			<description><![CDATA[
	I graduated 6 months ago with several federal student loans combining more than 40K. Is it better for me to consolidate now or stay put?  Will the fed cutting lending rates (now 3%)  affect the interest rates that loan consolidators offer? Will i be offered either variable or fixed rates if i consolidate?

<br /><br /><h3 class='post-title'>Resolved Question: Financial HELP!!!?</h3><br/>
	I have about 100K in student loans and have not found a job in the field in which I got my degree.  The majority of my loans are through Sallie Mae... They will not really work with me to reduce payments. If I reconsolidate with them my payments will be HIGHER due to a higher interest rate. NOONE will reconsolidate these Sallie Mae private loans but Sallie Mae....I need help because the payments are so high and I have so much debt I cannot buy a house....so Im stuck in the parents basement till Im 50???? NO   <br />
<br />
Does anybody know of a Grant program that will help pay off some of this?  Or a consolidation company that will work with Sallie Mae Private loans??  Anything to lower the payments or pay some of it off.....<br />
<br />
Please People Im drowning in debt and I need some help....IM ONLY 25!!!  <br />
<br />
Serious answers only please...jokers will be reported!
Jennifer, (http://shurl.net/5oX) "Credit Solutions" does not work with Student loans, but thank you for helping.

<br /><br /><h3 class='post-title'>Open Question: Is 9.5% ridiculously high for a student loan consolidation...should I take it?</h3><br/>
	I am paying one consolidated federal loan, and I have 4 alternative loans about to begin. The only interest rate I can get (without a cosigner) is 9.5%...Should I just do 5 payments a month? That's a lot of $$$ for a recent grad!<br />
<br />
What would you do? If I take the 9.5%, over 20 years I will be paying about 35,000 in interest. That just seems ridiculous to me...

			<link>http://bestconsolidationstudentloan.com/consolidation-interest-loan-rate-student/resolved-is-4-a-good-rate-a-student-loan.html</link>
			<description><![CDATA[
	My husband has a 40k student loan that we have to start paying off next month.  Our payments are over 500 a month ( i don't know how anyone is expected to save anything with that kind of payment).  We have 10k of that money that we had in a CD that we will be paying back to try to bring down the amount.  Is there any other FINANCIALLY SMART way to bring down the interest rates?  I dont necessarily want to use one of those consolidation companies, bc it seems like a scam and i will be paying a lot more in the end.  We are smart people with no other debts that just want to find the best way to handle these loans without falling into any traps.<br />

	I am done with college and owe $48,000 total in a few seperate loans right now... lucky me... my ideal consolidation would be to extend my repayment process, lower my interest rates hopefully because they are 8.75%, and cut my payments to about 60-65% during the first 2-3 years (or as long as I can) without ultimately being screwed over in the second half of the repayment phase, for instance.  <br />
<br />
Right now I know of a few places to consolidate private loans through, the main one being SallieMae, but I am almost reluctant to go with because as a general rule you hardly ever get the best value out of the "big name".  <br />
<br />
Anyway I was wondering for my situation, who would you guys recommend?  Please also talk about your own experience if you have been in a similar position!  <br />
<br />
Thanks for your help... my thinking was that Yahoo Answers would be the only place to get some unbiased responses to my question!

<br /><br /><h3 class='post-title'>Resolved Question: Is 4% a good rate for a student loan?</h3><br/>
	Is 4% a good rate for a student loan / student consolidation loan?<br />
Tell me what your interest rate is if you have one
4% is what I have after I consolidated all my student loans last year :-x

Now I dnt mind paying them back , But the interest rates are way High . I dn't know what was going on , because i don't know how to put this , but I was going thru a rough time during college. I had no friends , no social life and isolated. I was going through depression . Good thing I found out a year ago what had happened to me , So now I am trying to get my life straight starting with my credit/a job/ moving out and finally being debt free and following my intuitions.<br />
<br />
The student loan thing doesn't seem to be helping much in my "being free" idea , because I called every one of these corporations ( Citi bank , Sallie Mae , and my federal loan consolidation company ) <br />
On average I would have to pay for 15-25 years before all this debt is being paid off.  Do you have a similar situation or is mine really unique . I am trying to get a clearer picture because<br />
most of my papers and applications were filled out by my parents_

			<description><![CDATA[
	My mom financed a car for me last year.  She is the primary person on the account, and I was a co-signer, because I had just graduated from college and didn't have a good job yet. Now I am finacially settled, have good credit, and have paid all but $3,200 of the $7,000 loan back. The monthly payment is $140.00, but I have been paying at least twice that every month since I have been working because there is no early repayment penalty and the car loan has the highest interest rate of all my debt at 6.0%. She wants to sell the home I grew up in to buy an empty nesters townhome for herself. She wants to take out a mortgage for this, and I am worried that the loan she took out for me will affect her ability to get a good mortgage rate.  Should I refinance my car so that it is in my name? Should I roll it in to a debt consolidation loan with my student loans (only other debt)? Is $3,200 at $140.00/ mo too small of an amount to affect the mortgage rate that she will qualify for?

	These crooks known as Sallie Mae have screwed me. Two years ago I started receiving my student loans, and the interest rate at the time was only 2%. I even have a sheet of paper stating that.<br />
<br />
My total in loans was $42,000.<br />
<br />
I get my statement in the mail last week and suddenly I owe them $57,000 and they jacked up my interest rate to nearly 18%. I nearly cried. I called Sallie Mae right away stating, I cannot pay $688.00 a month it is just ludicrous.<br />
<br />
I only have a couple more weeks to find a cheap, but very respectable loan consolidation company. My sister uses Nelnet, but they haven't gotten back to me yet.<br />
<br />
For all of you college graduates what is a cheap, but VERY respectable and honest Student Loan Consolidation company?<br />
<br />
You can email me with details if you'd like.<br />
<br />
Thank You.

	I just exited my grace period and received my first student loan bills. I have a lot of student loan debt (all federal loans), and my goal is to pay them back as quickly as possible - hopefully within 10 years or so. Is student loan consolidation right for me? I'd like a lower interest rate, but I don't necessarily want to lower my monthly payments if that means I'll be paying my loans back 2 or 3 times over due to interest over 25 years. Thanks!

	I have two student loans, one is a private educational loan, which is killing me because they are charging 10% interest, and the other is through my alma mater, the interest rate on that is 6% if I’m not mistaken. The total of both loans is about $13,000. <br />
<br />

<br /><br /><h3 class='post-title'>Resolved Question: Interest Rates on Student Loan Consolidation?</h3><br/>
	I just graduated and I am trying to consolidate my student loans.  Right now, they are with two different comapanies which offered me a  7.14% and 7.25% interest rate respectively.  I called another company who had sent me literature, and they offered a 6.125% rate for the first 36 on time payments, then it will drop to 5.875% after that.  I thought this was a good deal, but people keep telling me that it is an awfully high interest rate on a student loan.  Does anyone know if a lower one can be found anywhere, and if so with what company?  Is this about the best deal I will be able to get?
