My family owes about 260k. I don't think they're forgiving that shite.

$0. School cost about 17,000-19,000 a semester for 8 years, but my parents paid for it.

Sitting at about 15k, but I'm finishing up my masters in a couple months. I'm not tripping because I'm an educated human being that knows what the word loan means

About 45. 35 k from actua school (I had to take money out even when I had a full ride ugh) and 10 k from study abroad. Comes out to about 550 a month. Paying it is whatever but I'm about to have to get the rate lowered because that's pretty rough.

If a kid is going to Baylor or Stanford he/she is not going for an early education degree and if they are I'm sure mommy and daddy are paying tuition.

I know 2 NOLA girls that went to SMU who are now elementary school teachers. Their parents paid for them to get those degrees, no loans.

Zip.....but tuition was about 500 per semester in the good ol days. So it can only be good if kids today don't have to rack up a huge debt to get a degree.....just Like in my day......

I got a communications degree from Baylor and make more than $45K. Obviously I wouldn't have gone there though if my parents didn't have money though. I honestly wamted to go to LSU but the out of state was more than my tuition at Baylor (after a big scholarship from BU). I do have some friends from BU who are like $150K plus in student debt though.

I will be so mad if this movement to forgive student debt gets seriously considered by Washington DC...


15K, and if student loan reimbursements happen I will leave the country

I've been a productive member of society and even worked a full time job and took a full time course load my entire time in college and there's this vocal hivemind of our generation fricking up the good peoples' reputations.
