2. Set your interest rate
The weighted average of all the loans you are consolidating is calculated, which results in a fixed rate which is as low as 6.75%.

3. Receive borrower benefits
Recent graduates consolidating while in their grace period, (normally within six months of leaving school), receive a .60% Interest Rate Reduction, which could take your interest rate to as low as 6.75%.

4. Begin processing of consolidation loan
Upon receipt of your completed and signed application we will begin processing your consolidation loan. We will contact the lenders currently holding your existing loans and request your payoff information. You must continue making your monthly payments until you receive your EdFed consolidation loan.

5. Begin repayment
You will be notified by servicer once your loan is complete. Your new payments will begin approximately 30 days from the date your consolidation is complete.

How EdFed Helped others!

When I first contacted EdFed, I knew nothing about consolidation. All I knew is that there was a deadline. The customer service representatives at EdFed were able to explain everything to me in terms that I could understand. I owe a substantial amount of money in student loans, and I didn't even know who my lenders were. EdFed was able to compile this information for me, calculated my low fixed interest rate, and explain their money saving benefits. Other lenders weren't even accepting phone calls prior to the deadline! Thank you for taking the time to go over my consolidation with me.

Education is one of the most basic right of any human, but with the increase in prices and the costs involved in education this has made these rights turn into a privilege which very few can enjoy. Any normal person today in the whole of United States has to take an education loan at one point of time to pay for their education fees.
