Any companies which refinance student loans for people without H1B but still in United States of CPT/OPT? Currently paying 9.5% to Discover which is ridiculous.

Thanks for the replies. Tried sofi and they rejected application. Prodigy gave a quote but still seems high. About 8%.

There is limited refinancing available for H1Bs, prodigy and SoFi. They might cater to you as well.

Prodigy is 9.5% upwards. I have with them. Try getting a co-signer if you can, else pay off as much and as soon as possible.

I used citizens bank and got something around 3%. I do think you will need a co signer. Look in to that

I currently have a Cap One Venture card. I have had it for a couple of years now but I am interested in upgrading to a Venture X card.

No promotion has been offered to me to upgrade my existing Venture card to a Venture X card.

Should I wait until that promotion is offered to me? Or would it be dumb to apply for a Venture X card separately and a) hold both cards or b) close out the original Venture card.

Isn’t this against the law (fair credit reporting act)?. I’m not a lawyer so I’d love to hear your thoughts
