I was in the process of consolidating my loans in June but my consolidation was frozen until the new rates were declared in July. My pending consolidation would have locked in my mixture of fixed and variable rate loans at my average interest rate of 3.5%. I did get the lower rates 5 years ago but some of the variable interest rate loans had been rising. If the new declared rates are actually lower I can use the new lower interest rates. However, I also have until July 31st to lock in at my average rate.

I called my bank (WF) to ask about this as I have over 100k in fixed rate student loans (some of the loans are are 4.5, the rest at 3.96%) They had no idea what I was talking about, so how would I go about (if possible) doing this? Or do I have to wait till July 1 before even talking to my bank? Thanks. I’m a little confused by this.
