Private College Student Loan

How long does student loans take to get though?

I applied for student loans like last week and it said I'm suppose to receive something in 24 hrs, but I didn't get anything back yet and I'm afraid that if it doesn't go through by the time I start school tomorrow, I won't be able to go to college. Does the student loans pay for the classes and books too or you still have to pay? If yes, how does the payment plan actually work? I know it's like a monthly pay, but how do you do it?

1. You'll need to talk to your school. Once you file the FAFSA, your school will receive the results within 2-3 business days, and then they will send you a financial aid award. If this award covers your full tuition, you shouldn't need to pay anything ahead of time. If you start classes tomorrow, though, you need to get on the phone and call your school today to see where you are in the process.
