Testimonials
As President of AMSA, I advocate for physicians-in-training every day! The AMSA Loan Consolidation Program helps me make sure that members are fully informed about the best strategies and options for financing their medical education. This Program pioneered innovative methods for saving students money, including the option of in-school consolidation that is now saving medical students thousands of dollars each which collectively is estimated to exceed $100 million.Before I took office, I chose the AMSA Loan Consolidation Program to consolidate my loans while in-school. My consolidation counselor was extremely knowledgeable, patient, and friendly, and provided guidance, information, and advice with no pressure techniques at all – all with one phone call in about 15 minutes. It was clear that the Program was designed to educate medical students like me about options and to make sure that I received the best personal advice for my situation.
I am very happy to have chosen the AMSA Loan Consolidation Program to consolidate my own loans. The Program is about so much more than just loan consolidation; it is a gateway to accurate unbiased information and opportunities to successfully manage the cost of your education. I recommend the AMSA Loan Consolidation Program as one of the timeliest and most significant investments you can make in your future.

“I used the AMSA Loan Consolidation Program, and it was incredibly easy. I didn’t need any paperwork ahead of time—the counselor retrieved all of my information. There was no pressure or sales pitch, just accurate information. In 15 minutes, I combined all of my loans and markedly reduced my interest rates. While I still have debt, it feels good to know that it will be easy to manage.”

"I am not familiar with finances, however, in ten minutes all the details of my student loans were explained. With so much to deal with before graduation and residency my counselor made sure I understood every aspect of the consolidation. The whole process was convenient and a lot easier than I expected."

The AMSA Loan Consolidation Program didn’t make my student loans disappear, but it made them a whole lot easier to manage. My counselor made sure I understood every aspect of the program with no sales pitches or pressure. The process was seamless and easier than I thought. Consolidation gives me financial flexibility and payment certainty...plus, it really decreased my stress over financial issues!
