Since you are now clear of which loans are eligible for consolidation, it is only fair that you know which types of loans are not eligible for consolidation,

  • Consolidating federal student and private student loans together
  • Previous bank loans
  • Personal loans
  • Consumer debt loans
  • Credit unions loans
  • Housing loans
  • Car loans
  • Or any financial loans you have acquired previously

Please know that the list here might not cover all the loans eligible for consolidation. And as time pass, it is possible that more loans will surface and added to the list. So, you will want to talk the loan agencies to see which loans are eligible for consolidation and see what is the best interest rate you can get.

You can manage your finance,
