 Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
 
 We have examined management’s assertion, included in the accompanying Management’s Assessment of Compliance with Regulation AB
        Servicing Criteria, that Great Lakes Educational Loan Services, Inc. (the Company) complied with the servicing criteria set forth in Item 1122(d) of the Securities and Exchange Commission’s (the SEC’s) Regulation AB for the Company’s student loan
        servicing platform (the Platform) as of and for the year ended June 30, 2018, except for 1122(d)(1)(iii)-(iv), 1122(d)(2)(ii)-(iv), 1122(d)(3)(i)-(iv), 1122(d)(4)(i), 1122(d)(4)(iii), and 1122(d)(4)(x)-(xiii), which the Company has determined are
        not applicable to the activities performed by it with respect to the servicing platform covered by this report. Management is responsible for the Company’s compliance with those servicing criteria. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on
        management’s assertion about the Company’s compliance with the servicing criteria based on our examination.
 
 Our examination was conducted in accordance with attestation standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public
        Accountants, and the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) and, accordingly, included examining, on a test basis, evidence about the Company’s compliance with the applicable servicing criteria and performing such other
        procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. Our examination included testing of less than all of the individual asset backed transactions and securities that comprise the Platform, testing of less than all of the servicing
        activities related to the Platform and determining whether the Company processed those selected transactions and performed those selected activities in compliance with the servicing criteria and as permitted by Regulation AB Compliance and
        Disclosure Interpretations of the Division of Corporation Finance, Section 200.06, “Vendors Engaged by Servicers” (C&DI 200.06). Furthermore, our procedures were limited to the selected transactions and servicing activities performed by the
        Company during the period covered by this report. Our procedures were not designed to determine whether errors may have occurred either prior to or subsequent to our tests that may have affected the balances or amounts calculated or reported by the
        Company during the period covered by this report for the selected transactions or any other transactions. We believe that the evidence we obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
 
 Our examination does not provide a legal determination on the Company’s compliance with the servicing criteria.
 
 As described in management’s assertion, for servicing criteria 1122(d)(2)(i) and 1122(d)(4)(iv), the Company has engaged a vendor to
        perform certain of the activities required by these servicing criteria. The Company has determined that this vendor is not considered a “servicer” as defined in Item 1101(j) of Regulation AB, and the Company has elected to take responsibility for
        assessing compliance with the applicable servicing criteria applicable to this vendor as permitted by C&DI 200.06. As permitted by C&DI 200.06, the Company has asserted that it has policies and procedures in place designed to provide
        reasonable assurance that the vendor’s activities comply in all material respects with servicing criteria applicable to the each vendor. The Company is solely responsible for determining that it meets the SEC requirements to apply C&DI 200.06
        for the vendor and related criteria as described in its assertion, and we performed no procedures with respect to the Company’s eligibility to apply C&DI 200.06.

 In our opinion, management’s assertion that the Company complied with the servicing criteria set forth in Item 1122(d) of the
        Securities and Exchange Commission’s Regulation AB, including servicing criteria 1122(d)(2)(i) and 1122(d)(4)(iv) for which compliance is determined based on C&DI 200.06 as described above, as of and for the year ended June 30, 2018, for the
        Company’s student loan servicing platform, is fairly stated, in all material respects.
