Private College Student Loan

How do I pay for textbooks with student loans?

I have recently accepted student loans. I am a transfer student( from community college to a state school). I have never taken out loans and I was just wondering how do I pay for textbooks? Do I give them my ID at the bookstore? Do I have to use my own money for the textbooks? I am confused. Anyone that knows please answer. I just called the financial office, and have been on hold for 54 minutes. I gave up. Thanks guys.

1. Different schools have different policies. Sometimes you will do it from the bookstore's website online and sometimes they will take it off of your account via your id. E mail the financial aid office or call again first thing in the morning. This is only valid if you have leftover money after paying your tuition fees by the way.
