Lot of times, making several payments on your student loans can be cumbersome. Hence, Brandywine student loan debt consolidation comes to your rescue. Once you qualify for such plans, making payments can be a cakewalk.

Benefits provided by Brandywine Student Loan Debt Consolidation


If your variable interest rate student loans was issued between July 1, 1998 and June 30, 2006, student loan consolidation can be a great money saver. The interest rate is fixed at 8.25% annually. Also, by consolidating, you will also break down your loans by making just one or two payments a month instead of several. Most lenders also offer supplementary 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 inflexible, but consolidating can still lower the number of payments and extend your repayment term.

When should you NOT opt for 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.

Brandywine Student Loan Debt Consolidation Eligibility


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.

After going through the pros and cons of student loan debt consolidation, you can opt for consolidation. However, do not consolidate federal and private loans. Consolidating them separately gives you the benefits available with federal loans.
