So sometimes I feel like reading this site makes me apply for way more cards than I should. I get the itch like we all do.

I usually don't apply for many cards but this year I did 4. In October I applied in order: NASA FCU Cash Rewards, Amex Everyday backdated to 2006 to offset aaoa and then Fidelity Amex.

So I was just browsing like usual and came across another Sallie Mae thread. Finally applied and instantly approved 10K World Master. This is my last card I'm applying for. I don't need anymore cards I already have so many. No store cards though, all prime. But I guess 5% on first 250 on gas and groceries will come in handy.

Does anyone know how we apply the cash rewards to the now owned Navient student loans? Thanks!

Sallie Mae had a line on their site that Barclays would soon offer an option to transfer to Navient accounts.  I contacted Barclays asking when that would be available, and they just punted.  Here is the response:

Thank you SayHey for the reply. I hope they figure it out. A statement credit isn't that bad though.
