As a contract, a lease is binding on the parties under its terms, and there may be specific words about what to do in this situation, but usually you can get out only if everyone else agrees to start over. In general: If you cosigned then you are a partner with all the other cosigners (for the purpose of paying rent) until they agree to carry your portion of the burden and the landlord agrees to release you from your obligation (accepting a new agreement with the remaining cosigners). First you should get agreement from your partners (to release you) and then they can present their new offer to the landlord, perhaps with a substitute for you.

What are the rights of a cosigner?

A cosigner is a person who signs with another person for a loan of some sort due to credit issues or financial reasons. A cosigner unfortunately does not have as many rights as the person who is first listed on a loan. For example, if you purchase a car and your boyfriend/girlfriend cosigns for you and you two break up, they cannot take the car away from you. However, if you are late on payments, the cosigner will then be responsible for the payments.


What are the options if an exfiance wants off a cosigned student loan but the borrower cannot get another loan to pay off or refinance the cosigned loan and no the loan has never defaulted?

Since your ex-fiance cosigned on the loan, they are just as much obligated to the contract as you are. The only way they could get their name "off the loan" was, as you said, for the original borrower to obtain a new loan, in order pay off the original obligation. If this is not possible, then she is locked into the original contract.
