I have a series of student loans – a few from Direct Loan Servicing Center, Nelnet and Sallie Mae. How can I get these consolidated with the best rate and are there any cash back perks or other incentives for consolidating these loans?

Usually there are not incentives beyond the amount of money you’ll end up saving. Before you graduate you should have to undergo an “exit interview” for your loans, and they give you a lot of information there. If you don’t want to wait that long, sometimes the financial institutions that you are borrowing from will have information, so try asking them directly.
The government also offers advice and services here:
