Having multiple payments on your student loan and trying to clear them can be difficult. Hence, Alligator Point student loan debt consolidation extends all their support to make sure that you clear off your debts in no time.

Advantages of Alligator Point Student Loan Debt Consolidation


For all your variable interest rate student loans issued between July 1, 1998 and June 30, 2006, student loan consolidation is one stop place to meet all your financial obligations. The interest rate is 8.25% every 12 months. . Also, by consolidating, you will cut down your loans by making just one or two payments a month instead of several. Many lenders also offer extra discounts for automatic payments and after a period of on-time payments.

If your loans were issued after July 1, 2006, then your rate remains the same, but consolidating can still lessen the number of payments and extend your repayment period.

Reasons Not to Pursue Alligator Point Student Loan Debt Consolidation


If your loans total less than $10,000 or are close to being paid off, then consolidating may not be appropriate for you. Most lenders require a minimum of $10,000 to qualify, although a few lenders offer consolidation for balances as low as $3500.

You should avoid consolidating student debt into a higher-rate personal loan or rolling the debt into your home with a home equity loan. If you die, your student loans are forgiven, but your heirs could be stuck with your loans if they're consolidated into other types of loans. You should avoid adding a spouse's loans to yours or adding your spouse's name to the loan because joint consolidation obligates your spouse to continue repaying your loans after your death. In addition, other types of consolidation loans may include fees that would cancel the potential savings. Finally, part of your student loan interest is tax deductible up to an income limit, while personal loan interest is not.

Qualifying for debt consolidation


Almost anyone who has already graduated and has a student loan balance of over $10,000 can easily qualify for consolidation. Even if you have defaulted on your loan in the past, you can still usually consolidate, although it may be very difficult to get the best interest rate. If you have recently graduated, make sure that you check the box on your consolidation application that says that you want to delay consolidating until your repayment grace period ends. That way you can lock in the interest rate, but still take advantage of your grace period. The Federal government announces the new interest rate for the next year during the spring. If the new rate is higher, make sure that you sign and turn in your consolidation paperwork before June 30th. If the new rate is lower, wait until July 1. Just remember that once you consolidate you cannot do so again, unless you are adding another student loan to your current loans.

If the reasons to consolidate your loan outweigh those against it and you qualify, it is time to get started. Remember, if you had to get private loans outside of your federal student loans, then it is best to consolidate these two types of loans separately. If you were to consolidate the two types of loans, you would lose the benefits attached to a federal loan, such as the tax deductable interest, the possibility that your federal loan could be forgiven, and the ability defer payments on your federal loan if you go back to school. When consolidated with a private loan, your federal loan becomes private and must be paid back like any other loan.
