*Subject to the above, the auto-debit benefit is available on loans guaranteed 6/9/08–6/30/09. Assuming the loan is serviced by Sallie Mae, this benefit is available during active repayment for as long as the borrower's monthly payment is successfully deducted from his/her bank account. If the loan is not serviced by Sallie Mae, other restrictions may apply as determined by the U.S. Department of Education.
