Loan Incentives
Incentives are sometimes offered to students who repay their loans on time. For information on repayment incentives and their availability contact the Direct Loan Servicing Center for Direct Loans. If you have a FFEL, you must contact your lender for particular information about the types of incentive plans in place.
To obtain the most favorable terms, consider loan consolidation - you can get discounts including:
- Reduce your monthly payment by as much as 53% and simplify your monthly bill-paying paperwork with one payment a month.
- No credit check, no co-signers needed, and no fees!
How PLUS Loan consolidation works is explained in detail here.
