After you have completed your loan applications, they will need to be sent to school for verification and processing. Many banks will not release funds directly to student, only to college at start of term. This makes it easier- and safer- for both college and student.

Securing funds for college is a fairly easy process that needn't be stressful. The key to whole process is being well organized and making sure that you meet all of loan deadlines specified by both Department of Education and your college's financial aid office.
