NerdWallet recommends taking out a private student loan only after youâve exhausted your federal student loan options. Their rates range from around 2.77% to 12.99%, depending on the lender, term length, type of interest rate (variable or fixed), and the borrower or co-signerâs credit.
Interest rates on federal student loans are reassessed annually and are tied to the rate for the 10-year Treasury note. Rates on loans for undergrads have been cut nearly in half since the most recent high of 6.8% between 2006 and 2009. CNNMoney (New York) First published June 30, 2016: 1:28 PM ET.
