Can you pay a consolidated student loan with high interest with a new student loan at lower rates?

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.


What is disbursment of loan?

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.

What is the purpose of direct loan?

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.
