NEW YORK--(Business Wire)-- Fitch Ratings has affirmed 25 classes from the Federal Family Education Loan Program (FFELP) student loan revenue bonds issued by CollegeInvest November 1, 1999. The transaction was placed 'Under Analysis' though the monthly SMARTView process due to variance in performance. The collateral supporting the bonds consists of federally guaranteed loans originated under the FFELP. FFELP loans are guaranteed by an eligible guarantor to at least 97% of principal and accrued interest, depending on loan origination date. The FFELP loans are also reinsured by the U.S. Department of Education up to the same amounts. Overall, collateral performance for the trust has been consistent with expectations from a net default and delinquency perspective. The total parity ratio for the trust as of June 30, 2008 was 100.91% and is expected to remain stable. Credit enhancement consists of excess spread, and a debt service reserve account. Additionally, the class A notes benefit from subordination provided by the lower priority notes. The excess spread generated by the trusts has been sufficient to cover any losses and pay note principal to build credit enhancement. The student loan portfolio is serviced by Nelnet and ISL Servicing Corp. (Fitch does not have a seller servicer rating on either servicer). The ratings affirmed are as follows: College Invest November 1, 1999 Master Trust: --Senior 1999 series IV-A1, 'AAA'; --Senior 1999 series IV-A2, 'AAA'; --Senior 1999 series IV-A4, 'AAA'; --Senior 2001 series V-A, 'AAA'; --Senior 2002 series VII-A1, 'AAA'; --Senior 2002 series VII-A2, 'AAA'; --Senior 2002 series VII-A3, 'AAA'; --Senior 2003 series VIII-A1, 'AAA'; --Senior 2003 series VIII-A2, 'AAA'; --Senior 2004 series IX-A1, 'AAA'; --Senior 2004 series IX-A2, 'AAA'; --Senior 2004 series IX-A3, 'AAA'; --Subordinate 2004 series IX-B4, 'A'; --Senior 2004 series X-A1, 'AAA'; --Senior 2005 series XI-A1, 'AAA'; --Senior 2005 series XI-A2, 'AAA'; --Senior 2005 series XI-A3, 'AAA'; --Senior 2006 series XII-A1, 'AAA'; --Senior 2006 series XII-A2, 'AAA'; --Senior 2006 series XII-A3, 'AAA'; --Senior 2006 series XII-A4, 'AAA'; --Senior 2007 series XIII-A1 'AAA'; --Senior 2007 series XIII-A2 'AAA'; --Subordinate 2007 series XIII-B1 'A'; --Subordinate 2007 series XIII-B2 'A'.
