Student Refinance

Refinance and Consolidate with Student Choice

Best Use: Out of school and currently employed

With a Central One Student Choice Consolidation loan, you can combine multiple private student loans (and their loan payments), into one loan with a single payment. You can only consolidate or refinance private student loans.

When you consolidate multiple student loans or refinance a single student loan, you may receive a lower monthly payment with a reduced interest rate or an extended repayment term. However, extending your repayment term may increase the amount of interest you pay over the life of the loan.

Benefits:
  • Potentially lower monthly payments
  • Consolidate multiple private student loans or refinance a single private student loan
  • Reduce your loan cost by qualifying for 0.25% interest rate reduction with Auto-Draft/ACH from a Central One account
  • No application fee, origination fee, processing fee or disbursement fee.
  • Variable rate based on credit history, co-borrower (if applicable) and other factors.
