Heather,

Thank you for this valuable service you are providing.  I have learned so much from your webinars and reading your forum and blog. 

One question I still have is what will happen if I consolidate my loans, begin paying my loans through IBR, and am on my way to PSLF after 10 years, but 5 years in, I decide to take a job in the private sector.  Will I take a major hit with the interest that will be accruing during those 5 years if I currently have about $65,000 in student loans?  or what will happen when I no longer qualify for PSLF? 

Thanks again for your help and please let me know if you need additional information from me to adequately answer this question.
