Is this how student loans normally report?

[Layfield]

Today I took a look at my reports on TrueCredit and saw that my first student loan is now reporting. It shows the type is an unsecured loan and says my pay status is current.

 

Is this how new student loans normally report? I thought it would specifically say that it was a student loan since the Truecredit help screen says that it is one of the types, and I also thought it would say that it is deferred until after graduation since I am not paying on it until after I graduate.

 

Since it does not say student loan, I am a little worried that a lender might think it is an ordinary loan that has to be repaid right now.

Don't rely on Truecredit for accurate reporting. You'll want to check your true reports, because that's is what truly matters.

I pulled my TU (since it is the only one reporting it so far) and it just says unsecured as well.
