Do you get subsidized and unsubsidized loan in two checks or one?"?

Answer 1

By law Stafford student loans are to be disbursed in 2 payments equally divided between the semesters it's being used for. If the loan is for one semester only, it may be received in one check, if I remember correctly.

Answer 2

I always get mine in one, but it doesn't come to you, it goes directly to the school and then if there is money left over they send it to the address you have on your home of record.
