<p>I have a citi assist student loan and i havent been able to find this information, I was wondering if the loan can be given to the student instead of sent directly to the school. I ask because i am considering renting a house instead of university housing and would like to use a loan to pay for that housing, thanks.</p>
<p>In my D’s case, all loan money was sent directly to the school, and IF there was an overage in her account after all fees were paid then a “refund” of the difference was paid to her for additional expenses (books, etc.).</p>
