Hard inquiries

Hard inquiries affect your credit score. You state that hard inquiries made within14 days for the same type of credit will be grouped into 1 inquiry.  On the one day I had applied for a car loan through a dealership, again on a different day my daughters student loan,  and again for a home loan. 3 different days 3 different loans within the same year. ALL of these inquiries show up on my credit report. 3 for each of them. Is there anyway for me to make each set of 3 into only one? As I stated, they're for  the same type of loan on the same day but come up as 9 hard inquiries on my report. Can this be changed? I need to find the best rate every year for my daughter's student loans that I am a co-signer on and don't want to get hit this hard every year as my credit score is  plumetting because of it and my interest rates on her student loans are higher because of my plummeting credit score! What can I do?
