� Important: Federal Loan Protections

Refinancing federal student loans into a private loan means you'll lose important federal benefits:

  • Income-driven repayment plans (IBR, PAYE, REPAYE)
  • Public Service Loan Forgiveness (PSLF) eligibility
  • Deferment and forbearance options
  • Potential loan forgiveness programs

Only refinance federal loans if you're confident you won't need these protections.



Consider Refinancing (with caution)

You could save $5,492.12 over the life of the loan. However, carefully weigh this against losing federal loan protections. Only proceed if you have stable income and don't anticipate needing income-driven repayment or PSLF.
