DH and I both had modest UG debt, but he incurred significantly more once we were married and he then went back to school. We referred to it as the mortgage on his brain. Sure, it kept us from buying a house til we had been married 14 years and the kids were in elementary school, but a deal breaker? Nope. That what people whose parents couldn’t/didn’t help pay for college have do to break the cycle. It was an adventure. It has also enabled us to weather the medical expenses incurred when I developed an incurable illness at age 41.
