Navient is a publicly traded U.S. corporation based in Wilmington, Delaware[2] whose operations include servicing and collecting on student loans. Managing nearly $300 billion in student loans for more than 12 million customers, the company was formed in 2014 by the split of Sallie Mae into two distinct entities, Sallie Mae Bank and Navient. Navient employs 6,000 individuals at offices across the U.S.[3]
It is not accredited by the Better Business Bureau.[2]
In August 2015, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, which has been investigating the company for nearly two years, sent Navient a letter telling its executives that the agency's enforcement staff had found enough evidence to indicate the company violated consumer protection laws.[4]
