Sallie Mae approves LAHFOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE May 13, 2004 SLM Corporation (Sallie Mae) has concluded its review process and has awarded Los Angeles Helicopters (LAH) approval to provide its lending programs to the LAH student population. "Students must be able to focus on their flight and ground training full-time in order to maintain a predictable completion date for their studies," said Guillaume Maillet, LAH's Chief Pilot. "Sallie Mae lending solutions enhance a student's learning experience by providing flexible lending options." As part of a continual effort to provide comprehensive training solutions to its student population, LAH can now help compress the learning timeline by solving a student's financial need. About SLM Corporation (NYSE: SLM), commonly known as Sallie
Mae, is the nation's leading provider of education funding, managing
more than $92 billion in student loans for more than 7 million
borrowers. The company primarily provides federally guaranteed
student loans originated under the Federal Family Education Loan
Program (FFELP), and offers comprehensive information and resources
to guide students, parents and guidance professionals through the
financial aid process. Sallie Mae was established in 1973 as a
government-sponsored enterprise (GSE) called the Student Loan Marketing
Association, and began the privatization process in 1997. Since
then, the parent company name has changed, most recently to SLM
Corporation. Through its specialized subsidiaries and divisions,
Sallie Mae also provides an array of consumer credit loans, including
those for lifelong learning and K-12 education, and business and
technical products and services for colleges and universities.
