Do You Have Federal Or Private Student Loans?

by | Aug 2, 2012 | Student Loan Debt

This article on the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau’s website is particularly helpful for those that have forgotten whether they have federal or private student loans.  It provides a link to the National Student Loan Database System for Students (NSLDS) where anyone with a student loan can retrieve their loan information.  This is particularly helpful for those that are having difficulties keeping up with their loan payments.  If you have a private student loan, an experienced attorney in debt negotiation will be able to help reduce that debt much more than if you have a federal loan.  Therefore, the first step in getting help is knowing what kind of loan you have in the first place.
