sallie mae & credit bureau

I heard that Sallie Mae pulls from Equifax. Has anyone heard otherwise? I'm looking to get a private loan from Sallie Mae, so if anyone had info on which credit report they use, please let me know.

I've heard the same. I avoided them initially because I had an unpaid collection on my Equifax that I had zero intention of paying. After I had disputed it a couple of times, the collection dissappeared.

I have Sallie Mae undergrad loans reporting on all three (Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion) of my credit reports. However, I've never had anything but Stafford loans, so there may be a difference in how they report GradPlus loans and the like.
