"Hi. My name is Brooke Kramer and I'm the Financial Aid Officer at Argosy University in Salt Lake City and today we're going to talk about you can see where your student loans are at in the process of receiving federal aid. The first step is to first complete your FAFSA, so if you've already completed the pre-application for federal student aid, you can check the status of this by logging on to their website at www.fafsa.ed.gov and they can tell you at what process they are in completing your FASFA. Once your school receives the results from your FAFSA and they receive all of your documentation, then they can start the process of certifying your loan. So you're going to want to get all of your forms in as quickly as possible so your university can start certifying those loans. Once they are certified, they send it your lender who will then process your student loan and guarantee it and then they then send the loan to your school. Once your school receives your loan, they usually automatically take care of your tuition and fees and at that time then they'll issue you a refund check if there are any leftover funds. If you have any other questions, please feel free to check out our website at www.argosy.edu."
