Is there anyone who knows of any good PRIVATE Student Loan consolidation program? Most lower your payments but do not lower your interest rate. I am looking for a lower interest rate.

I have a subsidized student loan in the amount of $11,460.55, does anyone know the names of specific companies that have the best consolidation rates at this time? What are those rates?
Well maybe I should ask, “which company offeres the best incentives and rate deductions”?

Going to university needs a pretty enormous quantity of money. With the sort of economy that we are experiencing now, more scholars are on the lookout for college loans that can help them with their costs to go on to a raised level of education. There are lots of young folk out there who dream to get a school degree to assist them in achieving all their dreams in life.

Recently, I consolidated my student loans (undergrad, grad school loans). After I received the final break down, it appears that I will be paying double over the 25 year pay back period even with a 6% interest rate. This is ludicrous and certainly NOT what the agreement stated. I need to find a better company [...]
