Private College Student Loan

I was offered a ford federal grad plus direct loan, I accepted the award from my school, was I approved?

I was offered the full amount of the loan, I accepted it via the financial aid website at my school, does this mean I was approved (for the ford federal grad plus direct loan?) If you are offered an award does this mean you were already approved or still have to be?

1. If your school offered it to you, then you are approved for the loan. You might want to consider taking out the graduate level Ford Federal Direct Stafford loans first, and then taking the remainder in the Ford Federal Grad PLUS. The interest rates on the Stafford loans are lower. Ask someone in your financial aid office about this. They should have offered the grad level Stafford loans to you first.
