Usually there are at least some bank fees associated with any type of debt consolidation. Usually they include time spent on the paperwork and loan processing fees.
Student loans can be consolidated after graduation or dropping out of school by filing with the government to consolidate all federal student loans. Remember that non-federal loans cannot be consolidated.
Student loans cannot be consolidated in the UK as the repayments are deducted in a different way to that of a 'normal' loan. Repayments on a student loan would be deducted from one's wages once employed and earning a certain salary.
Almost all federal student loans can be consolidated under the Direct Consolidation Loan program. They offer multiple repayment plans and fixed interest rates. Private student loans that do not qualify for consolidation under the Direct Consolidation Loan can be consolidated through separate programs such as NextStudent, Student Loan Network, and Wells Fargo.
Probably, but you are unlikely to be granted a large enough loan to refinance your consolidated loans. Yearly loan amounts are usually capped to your need for the current loan period (a year, usually) and you might not be able to borrow more than your current yearly educational outlay. But that depends on how large your conslidated loan is.
The disbursement of a loan is when the money borrowed is given to the person who took the loan out. In the case of a federal student loan, the money is given (disbursed) directly to the school so that the money is spent on school expenses first. Any amount over the cost of tuition, fees, etc. will be sent to the student as a refund.
Many different companies offer consolidated student loans. Some examples of these companies include Loan Approval Direct, Next Student, and DebtConsolidation.

When you are receiving a private student loan, it cannot be consolidated with federal student loans so you would need to take that into consideration. Here is a website to find out more about private student loan consolidation. http://www.finaid.org/loans/privateconsolidation.phtml
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.
