I don't think there is a point in consolidating, because the interest rate you are receiving on your student debt will be considerably lower than any "new" debt you create.
You could apply for one of the real low rate interest visa cards, then chop up yours until you get back in balance. Or go to another bank with all your statements and see what they will do - if they are smart, they will take your business because they will earn a lifetime customer for low risk (<$5000)
