Is there any way to consolidate federal student loans with a private student loan before the july 1 deadline?

I have 3 student loans through the federal gov't (perkins, federal direct and a "GATE" - AES loan). I also have a small private student loan through citibank. I want to consolidate all 4 by the July 1 deadline but no one will combine private and federal. I get ads in the but they all seem like scams to me. Any financial experts have any ideas?
