Consolidating private loans?

[DHMO]

Hi everyone,
I was wondering if it is possible to take loans through a private bank (e.g Bank of America, Wells Fargo) and consolidate them with all your loans from the federal govt? If so, what are the disadvantages of doing something like this. Thanks for your help!

You are not able to consolidate private loans (variable interest rate usually) with government loans. Period.

You can consolidate private loans sometimes but that is about it.
