@rumrunner the mortgage industry has become very careful about financing…and refinancing…after the real estate collapse due to over funding a LOT of people.

If you are cosigning a college loan, it is NOT a “student” loan (in the name if the student only). It is a college loan for which you hold equal obligation for repayment. This will show up on your credit check. Or it’s a Parent Plus Loan, which is in your name only.

And lastly if you refi first, who is to say you will receive a college loan as easily?
