You can’t afford to go to grad school right now. Fortunately, there is absolutely no reason to rush it. Get a job, start paying off those loans, and give it five years. See where you are. You probably won’t have the loans paid off in that time, but at least you might have some clarity on what you want to do and what steps your desired path will require. And who knows – you might even find an employer willing to foot the bill for some graduate work. With maturity, experience, and (not least) income, you can figure out a better plan.
