NEW YORK--(Business Wire)--
Fitch Ratings affirms the senior student loan notes of the CollegeInvest
November 1, 1999 Indenture Trust. The trust has been producing positive excess
spread, and the parity for the senior notes is at approximately 106.5% as of
Sept. 30, 2009. A complete list of rating actions follows at the end of this
press release. 

Fitch's Global Structured Finance Rating Criteria was used to review the ratings
and the affirmation is based on the performance of the trust in-line with the
expectation. The existence of auction rate securities has not had a significant
impact on the trust performance. The Stable Outlook is assigned because, with
the significant buildup of parity for the senior notes, the ratings are expected
to remain stable for the next two years. The subordinate student loan notes
which will be reviewed separately upon the completion of the updated basis risk
analysis. 

The collateral supporting the Trust bonds consists entirely of federally
guaranteed student loans originated under the Federal Family Education Loan
Program (FFELP). FFELP loans are guaranteed at least 97% of principal and
accrued interest, depending on the loan origination date. The loans are serviced
by Nelnet and ISL servicing Corp, neither of which carry a Fitch rating.
