Stafford Loan Consolidation questions

<p>My son is graduating in May and we want to consolidate his subsidized Stafford loans. Could anyone provide the proper links for where we can find his current balances, and for where we would actually apply?</p>

<p>Also, how soon can you apply for consolidation after graduation? Must you wait to receive a statement first or can we start the process before then. Any info or insights regarding the process would be greatly appreciated!!</p>
