 loans. It has been difficult to fully grasp the extent to which servicing issues exist and to understand the disparate servicing practices between various servicers. To address these issues, the National Association of Student Financial Aid Administrators
 (NASFAA) and the National Direct Student Loan Coalition created a task force to examine issues related to student loan servicing.

 Student Aid (FSA) and loan contractors on how to improve the process for borrowers. Specifically, the purpose of this survey is to learn which issues borrowers are experiencing and if those issues are pervasive.
