Common Account Maintenance (CAM) is the student loan industry’s electronic standard used to report information about students, borrowers, and loans. Created by the National Council of Higher Education Loan Programs (NCHELP), CAM provides lenders, servicers, and guarantors with a standardized process for exchanging data. Among other things, CAM specifies the type of content, record format, and file structure for sharing data on borrowers and their loans.
