IMPORTANT: When determining what loans you wish to refinance, be sure to weigh the pros and cons of doing so. Federal loans come with some benefits that may or may not apply to you. Some examples of those benefits are loan forgiveness programs for certain professionals, the option to postpone payments based on financial hardship, and a wide variety of payment plans. These benefits and protections do not transfer to private student loans.
How much can you borrow?
- Minimum loan amount: $10,000
- Maximum loan amount: $250,000 (total student debt cannot exceed this amount)
When do you need to start repaying your loan?
- Payment of principal and interest begins immediately after the loan closes. There is no deferment should you decide to go back to school, so be sure to carefully consider if now is the right time for you to refinance your student loans.
What information do you need to get started?
