Student Loan Refinancing Q&A
Q: What is student loan consolidation?
A: Student loan consolidation allows borrowers the ability to consolidate and refinance one or multiple loans into one loan at a potentially lower interest rate.
Q: Am I eligible?
A: Borrower must meet the following requirements:
- US citizen or permanent resident
- Graduated from an eligible school
- Meet minimum credit requirements
Q: How much can I borrow?
A: Up to $125,000 in undergraduate student loan debt and up to $175,000 in graduate student loan debt.
Q: What is the difference between consolidating and refinancing?
A: Consolidating is combining multiple loans into a single loan and monthly payment while “refinancing” is reducing the interest rate of an existing loan.
Q: What documentation is required?
A: After you are conditionally approved based on credit, you (and your cosigner) may be asked to submit the following documents:
- Proof of Identity
- Proof of Graduation
- Proof of Income
- Payoff Information
Q: What is a cosigner?
A: A cosigner is a parent, grandparent, guardian or other adult who is creditworthy and willing to assume legal responsibility for the loan liabilities along with you. The cosigner must be a US Citizen or Permanent Resident.
Q: Is a cosigner required to obtain student loan refinancing?
A: In some instances, a cosigner is required. A creditworthy cosigner increases the likelihood of your loan approval and may lead to a lower loan rate. Creditworthy borrowers that meet the credit requirements may apply without a cosigner.
