Possibly - it depends on the terms of your student loans. If you took out a private student loan through a bank, you will probably need to pay back the loan.

You should check with the institution that you have been sending your student loan payments to.

A direct loan is a student loan that is made to the student directly by the federal government, which then subsidizes the interest on the loan while the student is in school. A direct loan is not a consolidation loan, neither for student loans or for people who have general debt. Direct loans are made to those who are determined eligible based on need, which is determined by FAFSA (www.fafsa.ed.gov). Keep in mind that student loans, once consolidated, are no longer "student loans" and as such are no longer eligible for any of the benefits of a student loan.

Student loans through the government are better than private loans due to the fact that the government does not have as high of interest on the loans, and you get a longer time to pay them back.
