I never said it isnt managabel but COT %$+%#++ DAMN thats like a house. Thats OD as **%+. And even if they do become surgeons and lawyers. Itll still take them a handful of years to pay it off. Not for me.

My undergrad was super expensive but they helped me out a lot, I pretty much went the last two years for free but i still came out with 50+ grand in debt. the cost of attendance a year was around 55000

.


Grad school, that's another question. I got into a military school, I should have gone. Still thinking about taking their scholarship

naw you right about that one, it is manageable but i will be paying for a while. cause even with the loan forgiveness i was talking about you have to pay a reduced some for the 10 years. but the loan forgiveness isnt a lock, soooooooooooooooooooooo if i didn't get it, id have to pay about 1200-1500 a month in student loans to pay it off in 10 years like you are suppose to... i swear to god imma be doing all kinds of #$% to get those billable hours when i become an attorney if i don't get that loan forgiveness.

100k is ridiculus
but financial aid is

Zero debt from undergrad (worked full time in college).  I'll have around 50k-+*% once I'm done with business school and I already have a job lined up that will let me pay off that thing in a good 2 years.

I'm at $36K right now.. About $50K when I'm done with undergrad for Business Admin-Marketing/History... Then between $36-44K for Graduate in Secondary Education..

So I guess between $84-$94K (I was giving ball park estimates).. Then get into teaching which with my master's already (instead of having to get it 3-5 years after being hired) I should start at the high $40K's or low $50K's..

And if I get into the High School level where I can teach both History & Business I start in the high $50K range..

I was originally supposed to take PoliSci but unfortunately plans change and switched to History so I could teach.. My goal is when I am in my 30's and mostly paid off I can finish something I started (27 credits short on polisci.. Just the principle for me)..
