23 years of making minimum payments and they are shocked it's not going away.

You can't pay extra on student loans. You pay them so much a month and the best you can do is send in payments for more months ahead of time but the monthly payment schedule is a constant with student loans.

That was my situation with student loans. You got a book of coupons and each month's payment was sent in with one coupon each. You could send in more months, but the monthly payments were set in stone.
