**ITEM 7.01**&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**REGULATION FD DISCLOSURE.**

As previously announced, Jon Witter, Chief Executive Officer of SLM Corporation (the "Company"), will be speaking at the 2026 RBC Capital Markets Global Financial Institutions Conference this afternoon, Wednesday, March 11, at 4:40 p.m. ET (the "RBC Conference"). As part of his remarks, Mr. Witter is announcing that the Company's wholly owned subsidiary, Sallie Mae Bank, has reached indicative terms for the potential sale of a portfolio of approximately $2 billion in private education loans, which is expected to close in the first quarter of 2026 (the "Potential Loan Sale"). The Potential Loan Sale remains subject to, among other things, negotiation and execution of definitive documentation, satisfaction of customary closing conditions, and receipt of any required approvals.

A live audio webcast and replay of Mr. Witter's remarks at the RBC Conference will be available at SallieMae.com/investors.

The information in this Item 7.01 is being furnished and shall not be deemed "filed" for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that Section. Furthermore, such information shall not be deemed incorporated by reference into any of the Company's registration statements, reports, or other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, except as expressly set forth by specific reference in such registration statement, report, or other filing.

Such statements can include, but are not limited to, statements about the plans, objectives, expectations, intentions, estimates and strategies for the future, and other statements that are not historical facts of or about the Company, Sallie Mae Bank, and/or either of their direct or indirect subsidiaries. These forward-looking statements are based on the Company's current objectives, beliefs and expectations, and they are subject to significant risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results and financial position and timing of certain events to differ materially from the information in the forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties include, among others, those set forth in Item 1A. "Risk Factors" and elsewhere in the Company's most recently filed Annual Report on Form 10-K, and other risks and uncertainties listed from time to time in the Company's other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Additionally, there may be other factors of which the Company is not currently aware that may affect matters discussed in the forward-looking statements and may also cause actual results to differ materially from those discussed. The Company does not assume any obligation to publicly update, revise, or supplement any forward-looking statement to reflect actual results, changes in assumptions or changes in other factors affecting these forward-looking statements that occur after the date such statements were made or presented. Any forward-looking statements speak only as of the date made. In light of these risks, uncertainties, and assumptions, you should not put undue reliance on any forward-looking statements discussed herein.
