You can apply and get a credit decision within minutes. If approved, you would then need to accept your terms and electronically sign your loan documents.
At that point, we send the loan application information to the school for certification. During this process, schools verify your enrollment status and your financial aid package. Every school has its own processes and timelines, so certification can take several days or sometimes weeks. Once we receive the certification back from the school, we’ll schedule the funds to be sent according to the school’s requested timeline.
The entire process from application to actually sending the money to the school typically takes at least 4-6 weeks, but it can be shorter or longer than that depending on the school.
