...Well I currently "live off" my credit card. Purchase everything with it, and just pay it off to zero each month.

I just meant how would I transfer my loan to a credit card? Also - I'm not sure if I want to open another credit card in the amount of $20k. Or if I can. I have three CC now, with a total of almost $20k, one is $10k the other two $5k.

If this is even what you were referring too... see, over my head!

You can request your CC company send you a check that you then write out and mail to your student loan company.

You have to be very careful with using a CC for this kind of stuff. While savvy people can get great deals using 0% interest promotions, a person could also get severely fricked with high interest if they fail to pay off the balance before their 0% promotion expires.
