Consolidating Private Loans?

[Pureride]

Members do not see this ad.

I am currently a resident and would like to start paying back my private loans which are
1) the bulk of my loan burden
2) growing like the bird flu
3) in deferrence
4) 7.5%

My FAFSA government loans are already consolidated at (2.75%) and I am in repayment but I cant stand to keep watching these private loans grow.

Does anyone have any advice as to whether or not it is possible to consolidate these loans? If so, which banks offer the best rates.

I think you can only consolidate private loans with private lenders. No clue as to who you can contact about it.

Thanks for the advice.
What are some of the private lender rates going right now?

All of my private loans (8 of them) have a 7.25% interest rate.
Can you consolidate at a lower rate?

Thanks
