My private lender does not offer consolidation. I am thinking of looking around to see if another private lender might buy out my loan but I'm not really sure where to start. Anyone have any recommendations or advice?
Also, has anyone consolidated private and federal loans together? Is that even possible?
When I consolidated mine, I asked my private lender about it and they said that only the government would do it. That was about 3 years ago. Not sure if anything has changed at this point.

you can't consolidate private and federal together (at least, you couldn't before).
you could try your bank or credit union. are you just trying to get a lower interest rate? depending on your credit, a personal loan from a bank or CC company might be lower interest.
Yeah FYC, just want to see if I can get a lower interest rate. Most of mine are about 6.8% right now. Maybe I'll look into seeing if my bank could do it.
