Hey myFICO,
I'm struggling to come up with the best strategy for paying off my student loans.
So I have about 40k in student loans with Navient spead across 10 loans. All 10 have varying balances and interest rates. Both the highest balance and loan and lowest balance loan share the highest interest rate of 6.550%.
With that knowledge, I have a few questions:
Any help is welcome.
Thanks!
Are they federal student loans, and if so, what type?
Certain federal student loans have explicit provisions under the Higher Education Act that exempt the normal exclusion of derogs reported on the loan until the loan has been paid in full. If you have a federal student loan with many derogs, they paying the loan will remove the derogs if they are more than 7 years since date of first delinquency.
