<p>"This means he graduates with $100k debt. " </p>
<p>NO COLLEGE is worth $100,000 in debt!!! not USC, not Harvard, NONE.
Would you blithely let him go and buy a house he could not afford??
Do NOT let your DS jeopardize his future, which is what he will be doing by taking on such a financial burden!! College LOANS can NOT be written off! not ever!! And there is no guarantee that he will get a better, higher paying job, or any job for that matter, because he went to a particular college .
A Mercedes Benz may be someones “1st choice” in cars, but that doesn’t mean you go into serious hock to buy one when there are other cars that will get you where you need to go, for far less $$$ ! The same goes for college.</p>
