However, if you have poor credit, you still may be eligible to refinance your loans with the help of a co-signer who has a credit score in that range."}},{"@type":"Question","name":"Will refinancing affect my credit score?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"When you apply for refinancing, your credit score may drop a few points, since the lender will perform a hard inquiry on your credit report. Your may also lose a few points if refinancing causes the average age of your accounts to drop. However, in the long run, refinancing may actually be beneficial for your credit score if it helps you make your payments on time and pay off your debt more quickly."}},{"@type":"Question","name":"When should I refinance my student loans?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"There isn't a single best time to refinance — the decision is personal and comes down to your financial situation and current interest rates. However, as a rule of thumb, it's usually only worth it to refinance if you can get a lower interest rate or a lower monthly payment than what you're currently paying on your student loans. Typically, you'll want to wait until you have strong credit and a stable job before refinancing."}},{"@type":"Question","name":"Can you refinance a student loan more than once?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"You can refinance student loans as many times as you'd like. There are no prepayment penalties if you decide to pay off your loans with a new one, though you may have to contend with origination fees."}},{"@type":"Question","name":"What types of loans are eligible for refinancing?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"Most private lenders will refinance any type of student loan — federal or private. However, you may encounter different rates for different types of loans."}},{"@type":"Question","name":"Can I refinance only part of my student loans?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"You can refinance some or all of your student loan debt. Many borrowers who have a mix of private and federal loans choose to refinance only the private student debt in order to retain federal benefits. You may also choose to refinance only the loans with the highest interest rates and keep the loans with lower interest rates."}}]}</script><script type="application/ld+json">{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"Organization","url":"https://www.bankrate.com/","email":"webmaster@bankrate.com","ethicsPolicy":"https://www.bankrate.com/privacy/","foundingDate":"1976","legalName":"Bank Rate LLC","name":"Bank Rate","address":{"@type":"PostalAddress","addressLocality":"New York, NY","postalCode":"10017","streetAddress":"750 3rd Ave, 28th Floor"},"foundingLocation":{"@type":"Place","name":"New York City, New York, U.S."},"logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://www.bankrate.com/v2.828.1/img/logo/bankrate-logo-268x60.jpg"}}</script><meta class="swiftype" name="type" data-type="enum" content="rate-results" /><meta class="swiftype" name="title" data-type="string" content="Best Refinance Student Loans In February 2025 | Bankrate" /><meta class="swiftype" name="description" data-type="text" content="When you refinance your student loans, you may qualify for a lower interest rate and a different repayment timeline, which could help you save money on interest or lower your monthly payments." /><meta class="swiftype" name="url" data-type="enum" content="https://www.bankrate.com/loans/student-loans/refinance-rates/" /><meta class="swiftype" name="category" data-type="string" content="student-loans" /><meta class="swiftype" name="category" data-type="string" content="loans" /><meta http-equiv="content-language" content="en-US"> <link rel="icon" href="/favicon.ico"> <link rel="preload" href="https://www.bankrate.com/static/fonts/CircularStd-Book.woff2" as="font" crossorigin> <link rel="preload" href="https://www.bankrate.com/static/fonts/CircularStd-Bold.woff2" as="font" crossorigin> <link rel="preconnect" href="https://fonts.gstatic.com" crossorigin> <link rel="preload" as="style" href="/ext/fonts.googleapis.com/css2?family=Roboto:wght@400;700&display=swap"> <link rel="stylesheet" href="/ext/fonts.googleapis.com/css2?family=Roboto:wght@400;700&display=swap" media="print" onload="this.media='all'"> <noscript> <link rel="stylesheet" href="/ext/fonts.googleapis.com/css2?family=Roboto:wght@400;700&display=swap"> </noscript> <script type="module"> document.documentElement.classList.remove('no-js'); </script> <style type="text/css"> .preampjs [data-preamp], .fusejs [data-fuse] { opacity: 0 !important } </style> <script> !

THE ANNUAL PERCENTAGE RATE (APR) IMMEDIATE REPAY: Reflects the estimated total cost of the loan, including upfront fees ($0), accruing interest, and the effect of capitalized interest ($0). Interest begins accruing after each loan disbursement. Rates shown include the 0.25% interest rate reduction for using the auto-pay feature. If the monthly payment is calculated to be less than $50 per month for the full term, the lowest payment is $50 per month with the term reduced. Not all borrowers qualify for the lowest rate. The rate you will receive (ranging from 6.34% – 8.29% APR with auto-pay) is based on the term of the loan, if the loan is cosigned (which lowers your rate), if you are a Rhode Island resident (which lowers your rate), your credit score &amp; financial history, your cosigner's credit score (if applicable), and other factors. The rate shown is for a 5-year term. The first payment will be due approximately 30 days after the loan is completely disbursed. The rates and terms disclosed above are available while funds last. New funds may be subject to different rates and/or terms.&nbsp;</p></div></div></div></div></div></article></div></div></div><div class="mb-4"><div class="RateCard-layout grid grid-cols-12

vary based on your income. Fixed rates range from 3.72% APR to 16.74% APR (excludes 0.25% Auto Pay discount). Variable rates range from 5.24% APR to 17.10% APR (excludes 0.25% Auto Pay discount). Earnest variable interest rate student loan origination loans are based on a publicly available index, the 30-day Average Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR) published by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. The variable rate is based on the rate published on the 25th day, or the next business day, of the preceding calendar month, rounded to the nearest hundredth of a percent. The rate will not increase more than once per month. Although the rate will vary after you are approved, it will never exceed 36% (the maximum allowable for this loan). Please note, Earnest Private Student Loans are not available in Nevada. Our lowest rates are only available for our most credit qualified borrowers and contain our .25% auto pay discount from a checking or savings account. It is important to note that the 0.25% Auto Pay discount is not available while loan payments are deferred.</p><p><br></p></div></div></div></div></div></article></div></div></div><div

Fixed rates range from 3.54% APR to 15.99% APR with 0.25% autopay discount. Variable rates range from 4.64%APR to 15.99% APR with a 0.25% autopay discount. Unless required to be lower to comply with applicable law, Variable Interest rates are capped at 17.95%. SoFi rate ranges are current as of 1/7/2025and are subject to change at any time. Your actual rate will be within the range of rates listed above and will depend on the term and type of repayment option you select, evaluation of your creditworthiness, income, presence of a co-signer (if applicable) and a variety of other factors. Lowest rates reserved for the most creditworthy borrowers. Check out our eligibility criteria at https://www.sofi.com/eligibility-criteria/. For the SoFi variable-rate product, the variable interest rate for a given month is derived by adding a margin to the 30-day average SOFR index, published two business days preceding such calendar month, rounded up to the nearest one hundredth of one percent (0.01% or 0.0001). APRs for variable-rate loans may increase after origination if the SOFR index increases. The SoFi 0.25% autopay interest rate reduction requires you to agree to make monthly principal and interest payments by an automatic monthly deduction from a savings or checking account. This benefit will discontinue and be lost for periods in which you do not pay by automatic deduction from a savings or checking account. The benefit lowers your interest rate but does not change the amount of your monthly payment. This benefit is suspended during periods of deferment and forbearance. Autopay is not required to receive a loan from SoFi. SoFi Private Student loans are originated by SoFi Bank, N.A. Member FDIC. NMLS #696891 (www.nmlsconsumeraccess.org).</span></p></div></div></div></div></div></article></div></div></div><div class="mb-4"><div class="RateCard-layout grid grid-cols-12 w-full"><div

It will be based upon your credit history, the loan term you select, and other factors. If approved, we will notify you of the rate you qualify for.</p><p>Your Interest Rate during the life of a loan: Fixed-Rate Loans</p><p>Your rate is fixed and will depend on the loan term that you select. This means that your interest rate will never change during the life of your loan.</p><p>Your Interest Rate during the life of the loan: Variable-Rate Loans*</p><p>Your rate is variable. This means that your rate could move lower or higher than the rates on your disclosure. Although the interest rate will vary after you are approved, the interest rate will never exceed 18% for the 5-year, 7-year, 10-year, or 15-year term. Your loan amount will not exceed the cost of attendance less financial aid as certified by your school. For variable rate loans applied for after 7:00 PM EST on January 7, 2022, the variable interest rate will be based on a publicly available index, the Prime Rate of Interest as published in the Money Market Section of the Wall Street Journal. These variable rates will be calculated and set each month by adding a margin between -2.50% to 5.72% to the Prime Rate. If you have an existing variable rate loan that uses the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) as the benchmark rate index, your loan will continue to use the LIBOR as the benchmark rate index. These rates will be calculated by adding a margin between 1.05% to 11.39% to the 3-month LIBOR. Your rate will not increase more than once quarterly. ELFI will notify borrowers with existing variable rate loans originated prior to 7:00 PM EST on January 7, 2022, of the expected change from LIBOR to the Prime Rate in the future.</p><ul><li>Loan Fees &amp; Example</li><li>Application Fee: $0</li><li>Origination Fee: 0%</li><li>Loan Guarantee Fee: 0%</li><li>Prepayment Fee: 0%</li><li>Late Charge: the lesser of 5% of the past due amount or $50</li><li>Returned Check or Insufficient Funds Charge: $30 For example, a 10-year loan with a fixed rate of 7% would have 120 payments of $11.61 per $1,000 borrowed.

Find out about other options. The Federal Direct Consolidation Loan may have student loan benefits and terms not detailed on this form. Visit the Department of Education’s website at www.StudentLoans.gov for more information about other consolidation loans. 2. To apply for this loan, complete the application. If you are approved for this loan, the loan terms will be available for 30 days (terms will not change during this period, except as permitted by law).</p><p>Reference Notes</p><p>Interest Rate: Your interest rate will depend on the loan term that you select. Interest rates are valid within the preceding 30 days.</p><p><br></p><p>Repayment Options</p><p>Immediate: The borrower starts repaying the loan while still in school. The monthly payment will cover the monthly interest and some of the principal borrowed. This option will have the highest monthly payments while in school, but will save the borrower the most money throughout the life of the loan.</p><p><br></p><p>Fixed: The borrower pays a fixed monthly payment of $25.00 while in school and grace period. This amount will first be applied to interest, and any leftover will be applied to the principal. Any unpaid interest will be added to the principal balance of the loan upon the end of the borrowers grace period.</p><p><br></p><p>Interest Only: The borrower makes monthly payments to cover the monthly interest while the borrower is in school and grace period. These payments will not include any payment toward the principal of the loan. The principal balance will remain unchanged unless the borrower pays extra.</p><p><br></p><p>Deferred: The borrower makes no monthly payments while in school and grace period. The loan will accrue interest while the borrower is in school and grace period. Upon the end of the grace period, the accrued interest will be added to the principal amount of the loan. Depending on the repayment option you select, your loan may defer payment of principal and/or interest while you are enrolled at least half-time at a post-secondary educational institution. If your loan includes a deferment period, interest will accrue from the disbursement of the loan through the end of the deferment period. Any accrued but unpaid interest during that time will be added to the loan’s principal balance. The lender does not offer payment deferral options once your full payments of principal and interest begin. The lender may in its sole discretion agree to modify the loan or extend other repayment assistance to you on request.</p><p><br></p><p>Electronic Payment Requirement</p><p>You agree to make monthly principal and interest payments by means of an electronic monthly deduction or transfer from a savings or checking account.</p><p>Borrower Eligibility Criteria</p><ul><li>All loans are subject to credit approval.</li><li>Must be a U.S. citizen or permanent resident alien without conditions and with proper evidence of eligibility.</li><li>Must be at the age of majority or older at the time of loan application.</li><li>Must reside in a state in which ELFI is authorized to lend.</li><li>A cosigner is not required but may help you qualify and/or receive a lower rate.</li><li>Must be an eligible student enrolled at least half-time at a post-secondary educational institution.</li></ul><p><br></p><p>Co-Signers: Must be at the age of majority or older at the time of loan application.</p><p>Bankruptcy Limitations</p><p><br></p><p>If you file for bankruptcy you may still be required to pay back this loan.</p><p>SOUTHEAST BANK RESERVES THE RIGHT TO MODIFY OR DISCONTINUE PRODUCTS AND BENEFITS AT ANY TIME WITHOUT NOTICE.</p><p>This website and all content is the exclusive property of SouthEast Bank and may not be reproduced without permission.

Accordingly, the APR is subject to increase or decrease due to factors such as changes in the interest rate of variable rate loans, changes in principle due to the capitalization of interest or presence of a cosigner.\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eVariable APR rates may increase or decrease depending on fluctuations in the 30-day Average SOFR index. Monthly interest rate accrual is based on the published 30-day Average SOFR Index as of the second to last business day of the previous month plus your applicable margin. If the 30-day Average SOFR Index is negative, it will be deemed to be equal to zero.\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLowest rate requires application with a cosigner and 0.25 percentage point interest rate reduction for automatic debit. Private Loans that are in a deferment (including borrowers who elect deferred repayment), grace period, or forbearance are not eligible to enroll and receive the automatic debit benefit until they enter into repayment. Once the repayment period commences, the borrower may enroll in automatic debit. Borrowers electing to enroll in interest-only or immediate repayment are eligible to enroll in automatic debit once the initial disbursement on the loan has been made.\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAPR’s provided include a 0.25 percent interest rate reduction for authorizing our loan servicer to automatically debit your payments each month from your bank account.\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLoans are funded by Granite Edvance Corporation NMLS ID# 1527348 www.nmlsconsumeraccess.org.

When you refinance your student loans, you may qualify for a lower interest rate and a different repayment timeline. The best <a class="Link" href="https://www.bankrate.com/loans/student-loans/student-loan-refinancing/">time to refinance your student loans</a> is when it saves you money on interest or lowers your monthly payments.</p> <p>Borrowers with good credit, in particular, will qualify for the best <a class="Link" href="https://www.bankrate.com/loans/student-loans/current-interest-rates/">student loan rates</a>. You can refinance both federal and private student loans, though it's usually best to avoid refinancing federal loans since they come with a number of perks that aren't available through private lenders.</p> <h3>Student loan refinancing requirements</h3> <p>Once you find a lender that best suits your financial situation, check the specific eligibility requirements with your lender. Though exact ones may vary, there are a few common <a class="Link" href="https://www.bankrate.com/loans/student-loans/requirements-for-student-loan-refinancing/">requirements for refinancing student loans</a> to be aware of.</p> <ul> <li><strong>Debt-to-income ratio:</strong> Your <a class="Link" href="https://www.bankrate.com/mortgages/ratio-debt-calculator/">debt-to-income ratio</a> (DTI) is a measurement of how much debt you've accumulated compared to your monthly earnings. You have a better chance of getting approved if your debt-to-income ratio is below 50 percent.</li> <li><strong>Credit score:</strong> When you apply for any loan, your credit score matters. Check your lender's credit score requirements before applying. If your credit score is in the mid-600s or lower, you may need to <a class="Link" href="https://www.bankrate.com/loans/student-loans/do-you-need-cosigner/">add a cosigner</a> to your loan to qualify.</li> <li><strong>Income:</strong> Lenders may impose a minimum income threshold, and they will likely want to see proof of employment — this tells them that you have the cash to make your monthly payments. Come prepared with recent paystubs, W2 forms or recent bank statements, as most lenders require documentation.&nbsp;</li> <li><strong>Refinancing amount:</strong> You will likely need to owe a minimum of $5,000 in student loans if you'd like to refinance. If you have less than that, most lenders won't work with you.</li> <li><strong>Degree:</strong> You'll typically need a completed college degree to be eligible for student loan refinancing, though some lenders accept borrowers regardless of degree status.</li> </ul> <p>If the lender you're considering offers a <a class="Link" href="https://bankrate.com/loans/student-loans/prequalification?cid=070c44a5-cfcf-46a2-a302-411568360bf8">prequalification</a> tool, you can see your estimated rate based on your general financial history with a soft credit inquiry, which won't hurt your credit score.</p></div> <div class="vertical-spacer pt-8 trsy-pt-[--pt] w-full" style="content: ''; --pt: 2rem"></div> </div> <div data-beam-element-viewed id="should-you-refinance" data-type="" data-location="" data-name="" data-position="" data-text="" class="w-full"> <div class="wysiwyg display-inline has-links"> <h2>Should I refinance my student loans?</h2> <p>Refinancing your student loans makes financial sense only if the loan you apply for has a <a class="Link" href="https://www.bankrate.com/loans/student-loans/how-to-get-student-loan/">lower interest rate</a> than the current interest rate of your student loans. You can use a <a class="Link" href="https://www.bankrate.com/loans/student-loans/student-loan-calculator/">loan calculator</a> to determine your current monthly payment versus that of the loan you're considering.&nbsp;</p> <p>While you may decide to refinance to a longer term to lower your monthly payments, keep in mind that this means you'll likely increase the overall cost of your loan through interest accrual.</p> <p>Whether you should refinance also depends on what type of loans you have. Refinancing could be smart if you have private loans, but you'll lose benefits if you refinance <a class="Link" href="https://www.bankrate.com/loans/student-loans/federal-student-loans/">federal loans</a>.&nbsp;These benefits include:</p> <ul> <li><strong>Income-driven repayment plans (IDRs): </strong><a class="Link" href="https://www.bankrate.com/loans/student-loans/income-driven-repayment/">An IDR</a> can create lower monthly payments based on your income and family size and any remaining balance after your repayment term ends could be forgiven.</li> <li><strong>Loan forgiveness programs:</strong> These <a class="Link" href="https://www.bankrate.com/loans/student-loans/qualify-for-student-loan-forgiveness-programs">programs forgive loan balances</a> for those in qualifying careers, like public service, those with permanent disabilities and those whose schools engaged in misconduct or fraud.</li> <li><strong>Deferment and forbearance options: </strong>Borrowers in a temporary financial bind may be able to suspend their payments until they get their footing. However, interest will continue to accrue, and they won't be able to make progress toward forgiveness during this time.</li> </ul></div> <div class="vertical-spacer pt-8 trsy-pt-[--pt] w-full"

a student loan. For federal loans, you can obtain a Federal Direct Consolidation Loan. This combines multiple federal education loans into a single loan, making it easier to repay. You may be able to qualify for alternate repayment plans by consolidating. Consolidation doesn&#039;t really change the cost of the loan, since the interest rate on a consolidation loan is the weighted average of the interest rates on the loans included in the consolidation loan, rounded up to the nearest 1/8th of a percentage point. If you choose a longer repayment term, the monthly payment may decrease, but you will be in debt for longer and pay more interest over the life of the loan. For federal and private student loans, you can obtain a private refi, which pays off the old loans with a new private student loan. The interest rate on the private refi is based on your credit score, and the credit score of your cosigner if any. If your credit scores have improved a lot, you may be able to qualify for a lower interest rate. A private refi can also change the repayment term, which can affect the size of the monthly student loan payment. Thus, there are several possible reasons to refinance a student loan, such as changing the loan servicer, changing the repayment plan or repayment term, changing the monthly payment, and obtaining a different interest rate.&quot;</p> </div> </div> </div> <div x-show="author_id_active == '944'" aria-labelledby="AskTheExperts-tab-2" role="tabpanel" style="display: none;"> <div class="AskTheExperts-detailsItem"> <a class="AskTheExperts-detailsAuthor no-underline" href="https://www.bankrate.com/authors/hanneh-bareham/"> <img srcset="https://www.bankrate.com/2021/10/12092359/New-headshot.jpg?auto=webp&amp;quality=85&amp;width=64&amp;height=64&amp;fit=cover&amp;enable=upscale&amp;crop=1:1,smart&dpr=1.5 1.5x, https://www.bankrate.com/2021/10/12092359/New-headshot.jpg?auto=webp&amp;quality=85&amp;width=64&amp;height=64&amp;fit=cover&amp;enable=upscale&amp;crop=1:1,smart&dpr=2 2x, https://www.bankrate.com/2021/10/12092359/New-headshot.jpg?auto=webp&amp;quality=85&amp;width=64&amp;height=64&amp;fit=cover&amp;enable=upscale&amp;crop=1:1,smart&dpr=3 3x" src="https://www.bankrate.com/2021/10/12092359/New-headshot.jpg?auto=webp&amp;quality=85&amp;width=64&amp;height=64&amp;fit=cover&amp;enable=upscale&amp;crop=1:1,smart" loading="lazy" class="AuthorAvatar AuthorAvatar--lg flex-shrink-0" alt=""> <div class="ml-6"> <p class="type-heading-four Link border-0 m-0 mb-1">Hanneh Bareham</p> <p class="text-slate m-0">Writer, Personal Loans and Debt Relief</p> </div> </a> <div class="w-full mt-4 border-gray-mid border rounded bg-white p-4"> <p class="type-body-two text-gray-dark m-0"> &quot;Refinancing is only a good idea if you fit within the two categories: you have a hard time organizing your student loan payments and you&#039;d qualify for a lower interest rate with a new loan. Most lenders offer a prequalification tool that allows you to see what your predicted rates would be if you were to qualify. If you have fairly high rates on your existing loans, it may be a good option to refinance. However, be certain you’re scoring a lower rate with a refinance loan. Due to the current high-rate environment, unless you have sky-high rates and a stellar credit score, it may not make sense to refinance until rates cool off.&quot;</p> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="vertical-spacer pt-8 trsy-pt-[--pt] w-full" style="content: ''; --pt: 2rem"></div> </div> <div data-beam-element-viewed id="how-to" data-type="" data-location="" data-name="" data-position="" data-text="" class="w-full"> <div class="wysiwyg display-inline has-links"> <h2>How to refinance a student loan</h2> <p>Just as you did when initially borrowing for your education, the student loan refinancing process requires you to apply for a new loan. This loan will pay off your remaining student loan balance and have new terms and rates. Borrowers often choose to refinance to lower their rate or extend their term. However, while a longer term may lower your monthly payment, it can cause you to pay more in total interest.</p> <p>The process to refinance your student loan requires the following 5 steps:&nbsp;</p> <ol> <li><strong>Determine if refinancing is the best option: </strong>First and foremost, you must consider if this is the right financial move. Will you truly save money in the long run or will your monthly payment just reduce slightly?</li> <li><strong>Research lenders: </strong>There are many options available when it comes to refinancing your loan. Compile a list of potential lenders so you can compare features and rates.&nbsp;</li> <li><strong>Shop for the best loan options: </strong>Every lender has its own acceptance criteria based on your credit score and loan. Shop around with many lenders to ensure you are getting the best new loan for your needs.&nbsp;</li> <li><strong>Submit a loan application: </strong>To apply for a loan you will likely need to share information on your current student loan, personal contact information and any cosigner documents.&nbsp;</li> <li><strong>Transfer payments to your new lender: </strong>Make sure that your old loan closes so you can begin making payments on your new loan.
