If its still alive after the default, some will be financial aid, and a bit of scholarship. I also will have to take student loans.

Despite American tuition costs being outrageous, it's actually quite easy to finance them, with manageable payment rates.

Yea, but how long you are going to pay for them is the key.

certain plans can last decades, some just last a few years. It all depends on your success after all, that is the real key to how long you will pay.

Well, if you pay 30k for a degree per semester.. that will take you some decades to pay back.

Life won't be as meaningful then even with a nice job where you might make 3000-5000USD per month.

Well, if some of that is with financial aid or scholarship, you wont have to pay back fully. I have to get reallllllllyyyy good grades in the JC I am in now, however
