June 30 is the last day to consolidate variable-rate college loans into fixed-rate loans before rates begin to rise. This date applies to both Stafford loans and student loans, and Plus, or parent loans. Consolidation and repayment rules vary depending on whether your loan came from the government or a commercial lender. Students don't have to start making payments on Stafford loans until they have finished school, and have a six-month grace period after graduation. Some tips for students considering loan consolidation include looking at the total cost, comparing rates, comparing repayment terms, and inquiring carefully about penalties.
