School Certified And Direct to Student Loan Comparison
The School Certified Loan is disbursed to the school's financial aid office. In some cases, this type of loan can have a higher approval rating because it is certified by the school. With the Direct to Student Loan, funds are disbursed in the form of a check made co-payable to the borrower and to the co-signer.
