I had that problem, albeit not as high. If she has the right federal loan she can consolidate it.

With about 11 months left for the covid loan payoff I consolidated it into a proper income driven repayment plan with studentaid. I then applied for PSLF because I work for Public Sector and have been paying for it for years.

Got the Forgiveness.

She won't get the forgiveness unless she works that 10 years in public and assuming the cheetoh tyrant doesn't get rid of it.

Here is info.
