ED Releases Performance Results on Direct Loan Servicers
Yesterday afternoon, the Department of Education released the first of what will be ongoing quarterly customer service performance results for the four new federal loan servicers. The Department awarded loan servicing contracts to PHEAA, Great Lakes, Nelnet, and Sallie Mae in June 2009 to provide additional servicing capacity for loans purchased by the Department through the Ensuring Continued Access to Student Loans Act (ECASLA). Beginning in July 2010, the Department will allocate new loan servicing volume among the four servicers based on how they score in five performance areas. The Department found no differences between the servicers' default prevention efforts and statistically insignificant differences between the servicers' customer service scores.
