CERTIFICATE OF STUDENT LOAN FINANCE CORPORATION, AS SERVICER

Re: Education Loans Incorporated
Student Loan Asset-Backed Notes, Series 2002-1

I, A. Norgrin Sanderson, certify that:

1. I have reviewed this annual report on Form 10-K, and all reports on Form
8-K containing distribution and servicing reports filed in respect of periods
included in the year covered by this annual report, of Education Loans
Incorporated (the "Registrant");

2. Based on my knowledge, the information in these reports, taken as a
whole, does not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state
a material fact necessary to make the statements made, in light of the
circumstances under which such statements were made, not misleading as of the
last day of the period covered by this report;

3. Based on my knowledge, the distribution information required to be
provided by the Trustee and the servicing information required to be provided to
the Trustee by the Servicer under the Indenture and the Servicing Agreement for
inclusion in these reports is included in these reports;

4. Based on my knowledge and upon the annual compliance statement included
in the annual report and required to be delivered to the Trustee in accordance
with the terms of the Indenture and the Servicing Agreement, and except as
disclosed in the reports, the Servicer has fulfilled its obligations under the
Indenture and the Servicing Agreement; and

5. The reports disclose all significant deficiencies relating to the
Servicer's compliance with the minimum servicing standards based upon the report
provided by an independent public accountant, after conducting a review in
accordance with the Uniform Single Attestation Program for Mortgage Bankers or
similar procedure, as set forth in the Indenture, that is included in these
reports.

Capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the meanings ascribed
to them (i) in the Indenture, dated December 1, 1999, (the "Base Indenture"),
between the Registrant and U. S. Bank National Association, as trustee, (the
"Trustee"), and the Fourth Supplemental Indenture of Trust, dated as of
September 1, 2002 (the "Fourth Supplement" together with the Base Indenture, the
"Indenture") between the Registrant and the Trustee and (ii) in the Servicing
and Administration Agreement, as amended, dated as of December 1, 1999 (the
"Servicing Agreement") among the Registrant, the Servicer and the Trustee.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this 26th day of March, 2003.
