Student Loan Advice
I need some information on how to get rid of or pay back a student loan that has accrued a lot of interest. When I call they say they will only accept payment in full.

Student Loan Consolidation Scam?
I had a substantial amount in student loans, but upon graduation I could not find a job and another one was too low to even cover my expenses. 3 years ago, I had an opportunity to pay back some of the loans and contacted the servicing agent that was on my credit report, and settled out with hemar, the servicing agency.

What happens if you cannot pay back your student loans?
I'm disabled and returning to school, but I am afraid to take out any student loans. eventhough I could really use them, because I don't know if my health will hold out long enough for me to get my degree or for me to work long enough to pay them off.

Lowering the Interest Rate on a Student Loan
I am trying to help my daughter who has come down with a medical condition preventing her from working regularly to pay off a huge old student loan. I didn't realize she still owes over $40,000 after eight years, mainly because of high interest rates. Is there anyway to get this reduced to a reasonable amount when the loan has been sold off two or three times by the original and subsequent lender?

Transferring Student Loans
If you have student loans which you cannot consolidate and they are at a high interest rate, compounding daily, then search for a credit card that will allow you to transfer balances at a low fixed interest rate for the life of the balance. You will be able to pay down your debt after a certain period of time.

College Debt - How To Avoid It, And How To Get Out Of It
By Vanessa McHooley
Because most college students are using loans to finance their college education, the debt level of recent graduates is rising rapidly. On average, students graduate owing $12,000-$16,000 in student loans and another $2,000 in credit card debt. Is this the price you have to pay for higher education, or can you avoid college debt in the first place?

I would like to know if it would be unwise to stop my 401k contribution for the next 1 1/2 to 2 years and use the money instead to pay off unsecured debt and student loans?

Consolidating Student Loans
I have three student loans. I have heard that there is something offered, possibly through the government, to consolidate student loans with a low rate (not higher than what I pay now). Does anyone have any experience with this and have any tips? - Chris
