• Answer:

  If you have all federal student loans, you can visit the National Student Loan Database (nslds.ed.gov) which keeps a record of all federal student loans. If you also have private student loans, there is no central agency that tracks that information, but you could get a free copy of your credit report at annualcreditreport.com and that should list your private student loans. Good luck!
