Whether you are about to graduate, just graduated, or have been making student loan payments for a while now, it’s important to be aware of the many options you have to streamline the way you make your monthly payments. These days there are so many options other than the standard ten-year repayment plan.
More people than ever are refinancing or consolidating their loans to both simplify their payments and save money. And the increased availability of income-based repayment plan options means that nearly everyone with student loans can adjust their monthly payment amounts to correlate with their income and make their payments more affordable.
