Yes, it is possible to get a student loan debt consolidation loan.
In the United States, federal student loans are guaranteed by the U.S. government. To consolidate a student loan that is guaranteed by the federal government, your loan is purchased by a loan consolidation company, or by the Department of Education. The interest rate will depend on market rates up to the end of May of each year, so they may change over time.
It is also possible for former students to get a student loan consolidation loan from a bank or other lender, provided you have good credit, and the ability to repay the loan.
If you have good credit, talk to different lenders to determine the best interest rate. If you already have the best interest rate, there is no need to consolidate. As with all debt consolidation loans, your goal should be to repay the loan as fast as possible.
