According to Randy Behm, senior vice president for Key Education Resources, the Key Education Consolidation Loan(SM) Program can provide greater repayment flexibility to borrowers who are in their grace period or who are repaying their loans. "Often, these borrowers are in the early years of their careers and can benefit from more disposable income and lower monthly payments," he said. "The fact that student loan rates are now at a 30-year low is an added incentive for loan consolidation."

For both the Direct Loan and FFEL programs, you'll be paid through your school in at least two installments. No installment may exceed one-half of your loan amount. Your loan money must first be applied to pay for tuition and fees, room and board, and other school charges. If loan money remains, you'll receive the funds by check or in cash, unless you give the school written authorization to hold the funds until later in the enrollment period.
