I have already applied for financial aid (FAFSA) for grants and was approved. Where can i apply 4 student loan

Answer 1

I think you can talk to your school about it... that's what the colleges around here do.

Answer 2

salliemae.com if your school doesn't handle it themselves. My school said they do the financing (even though it's all government money) It's based on the FASFA so the student loan (substidized and unsubstited "loan" is government money. It also determines if you are eligiable for pell grant and school grants. You should have to ask but sometime you have to push financial aid to tell you what's going on if you're in CA don't forget the cal grant (I've missed lots of "free" money becaue the school didn't follow through with what was suppose to be automatic.)

outside government money I guess that's through a bank, I know Sallie mae has signature loans, but the plus loan I think that's government money as well.

If you need more money ask ask again, you should have enough to be in school and extra for housing, books, transportion and food. Often you have to ask them to make sure they have given you all you are eligible for. After all it's the easiest loan you'll probably get and you pay if off after college bit by bit.

Oh and you will probably have to chase them (financial aid office) down to get the extra funds dispursed to you, they like to hold on to it as long as they can so they earn intrest on your money (yes it's your money cause you have to pay it back) Keep asking them if they have all the forms they need filed because they'll also try to claim you didn't sign soething or did turn in a signature page, mpn form, suddenly you've been choosen for in housing tax confirmation etc. ( I seem to get "choosen" every time I'm expecting a check) in so that they don't have to dispurse your money.

I go through this every term and hopefully next term will be smoother

Banks are harder and usually have higher insterest rates and fees. They do take fees out of you money before they give it to you :0(

Answer 3

Why would you want a school loan when you can garner scholarships and grants.

School loans you gave to pay back - scholarships and grants are free money.

keep searching using your schools financial aid department.

Do your very best not to borrow money on a loan.

And no...your fafsa is not a loan...it's the Pell grant.

Answer 4

You can either go to your local bank or, if you stated it on the FAFSA, you all ready did. You can also check with your university's financial aid office for direct student loans from your school.

Answer 5

At the bank of your coice but your best bet will be the bank or financial institution that you usually do your business with the most since it is, after all, a loan.
