FAQs Frequently Asked Questions

GCSU Stafford Loan Lender Selection

If you are a first-time FFELP borrower (Stafford) at GCSU, you will need to select a lender of your loan. GCSU provides a comprehensive listing of all lenders that were utilized by our students during the 2008-2009 academic year. The only exception is lenders that are no longer participating in the Federal Family Educational Loan (FFEL) programs. Several lenders will not have contact information listed as this information is not known by the GCSU Financial Aid Office. Further, a link to a database of all lenders that participate in the FFEL programs is provided. You have the right to select any lender that participates in the FFEL programs.

If you have borrowed a student loan previously, and you are satisfied with the lender's service, then we encourage you to stay with the same lender throughout your college career. Multiple loans from multiple lenders could require you to make multiple repayments at the same time. If you have previously borrowed at GCSU, we will automatically assign your loan to your previous lender. If you wish to change your lender, you should contact our office in writing immediately.

Neither Georgia College & State University nor the GCSU Financial Aid Office benefits in any way from your lender selection. GCSU abides by an established Code of Conduct (pdf).

The below list is presented in alphabetically order. Your research or selection of lender should not be influenced by the order of presentation.

Please contact our office if you have any questions.
