Direct-to-consumer federal student loans are offered by the government through the Department of Education which serves as the lender. Though Federal Family Education Loans for parents of students are also offered through the federal government, they are actually handled by government approved lending facilities.
Lenders for private student loans can be banks, credit unions, higher education institutions, or specialized lenders. Most of these institutions offer programs similar to federal student loans, however the terms often differ significantly.
