National Collegiate Trust owns only private student debt and not federal loans. Therefore, NCSLT loans are not eligible for the Public Service Loan Forgiveness programm, income-driven repayment plans, or any other perks that the Department of Education provides to its borrowers.

Although National Collegiate Student Loan Trust, LLC denies that it is a debt collector, the trust does qualify as a debt collector under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA) because it effectively purchases defaulted debts in order to collect them. It also owns the account.

National Collegiate Trust has a reputation for using aggressive and illegal tactics to collect debts. The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ("CFPB") in September 2017 penalized the National Collegiate Trusts and Transworld for $21.6 million for pursuing illegal debt-collection lawsuits. The CFPB discovered that Transworld and the National Collegiate Trusts had filed lawsuits against consumers in state courts for alleged debts that they were either unable to prove were actually owed or that were too old to sue.
