The last thing I wanted for my two students was to get a career they disliked or only get one just to payoff student loans. I really hope they find something they really like to do. I know work is work but at least enjoy some of it. Hopefully most of it.
I wanted them to get outside of their bubble while at college. Since we don’t have $50-70K a year to spend on that we made sure they were in great positions to get some merit and finish with no loans. One is done and off to a Masters program that is free with 3 yr obligation after a year. The other is has a full ride and came in with 39 credits. She literally can do anything she wants for 4 years. It will be so interesting to see what she ends up doing.
