How does student loan debt affect my credit score?

Fly girl asked:
I am at the final stage of paying off credit card balances. Just one more month, yippee!!!! I’ve also already paid off my car loan 7 months before the maturation date. Anyway, I still have close to $50,000 in student loan debts- federal and private. But that’s it. I have never had any major credit problems. Will all this student loan debt have a negative impact on my credit score and rating?
I always make the payments on time every month.
