RISLA was the only lender to receive more than four stars, earning a 4.5-star ranking.

Dental graduates leave school with an average of nearly $300,000 in student loan debt, making refinancing a potential method to cut down on total interest. 

Forbes used six weighted metrics to generate its list: hardship options (30%), eligibility (18%), loan terms (18%), application process (16%), interest rate (13%) and fees (5%). 

Here are the publication’s top eight lenders when it comes to refinancing student loans, along with their rating out of five stars:
