SFEPD Student Ambassadors


February was another impactful month for our SFEPD Student Ambassadors, who continue to champion financial literacy across their campuses and local communities. They are hosting workshops and leading peer discussions, organizing campus events, and engaging students through boothing and tabling activities. Our ambassadors are empowering fellow students with the knowledge and skills to make smart money decisions. Here’s a look at some of their inspiring activities this month!

Navient Settlement Payments Begin for Eligible Borrowers


Student loan borrowers serviced by Navient may begin receiving settlement checks this month as part of a $120 million agreement with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB).

The CFPB sued Navient in 2017, alleging the company misled borrowers, mishandled payments, and failed to properly assist those struggling with repayment. As part of the 2024 settlement, Navient agreed to provide $100 million in payments to affected borrowers and pay a $20 million penalty, and it will be permanently banned from servicing federal Direct Loans. Eligible borrowers began receiving checks by mail starting February 13, 2026, and no action is required to receive payment.
