About Us

Student Assistance Foundation (SAF) is a successful, nonprofit organization dedicated to providing students with knowledge and tools to finance and pursue their postsecondary education.

This 501(c)(3) company services a $3 billion loan portfolio as its primary business, and is projected to exceed $4 billion by Fiscal Year 2008. In addition, SAF provides significant, charitable, public benefit programs. Since 2000, it has distributed more than $7.1 million in benefits, including more than $3.5 million in the form of grants and scholarships.

SAF prides itself on its core values of honesty, integrity, trust, respect, commitment and accountability.

“We do the right things,
the right way,
with the right touch,
each and every time.”

SAF strives to understand and exceed customer expectations by providing dynamic services, products and programs that differentiate us from the competition.

Our customers know our commitment to their satisfaction best:

“I am a medical student in my third year, which obviously fills the majority of my time. Without the help of one of Student Assistance Foundation’s loan education counselors, I’m convinced I never would have completed my in-school student loan consolidation. Your counselor is the only person that would not take no for an answer (when it came to obtaining loan payoffs from other lenders) and covered every base to make sure that my loans were released. I will be recommending Student Assistance Foundation to all of my colleagues.”
