"Go with the Flows"-Salon
Do you ever wonder why you send some certifications to the lender, some to the guarantor, and some to the servicer? Why you receive funds from many different institutions while another school receives all of their funds from just one place? What exactly does a guarantor do? What does a lender do? What does a servicer do? This session will bring to light the major FFELP players, as well as the available loan processing flows, including the vocabulary used by everyone involved with those flows. You will also gain a deeper understanding of your current loan processes and new tools to assist you in controlling and streamlining your processing.
