Student Debt Crisis
1.0 Introduction
A student loan is designed to help students pay for university tuition, books, and living expenses. It
may differ from other types of loans in that the interest rate may be substantially lower and the
repayment schedule may be deferred while the student is still in education. It also differs in many
countries in the strict laws regulating renegotiating and bankruptcy.
There are two types of student loan that can be applied which are federal student loan and private
student loan. Basically, students are more prefer to make a loan in federal student loan because the
fixed interest rate wouldn't affect the payment that they have to pay even the interest rate rise. In
addition, government also provide free insurance ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
4.0 Impacts 5.5 Burden their family for decades
Currently, federal student loans are automatically cancelled when the borrower killed or disabled but
private student loans become the responsibilities of the students' families. So that, the student that
borrow private loan which have high interest rate just give a burden for their family to settle the
debt. Since the family have responsible to pay the debt together with the interest rate, they will have
no saving in future.
5.6 Could slow economic recovery in housing market
The extensive amount of national debt held by college graduates in federal student loans debt is
affecting their ability to qualify for a home loan and a delay in housing market growth. Students
coming out of college today have more federal student loan debt than ever and they're coming into
an economy that is under performing. The $1 trillion in student loan debt is starting to slow the
economy just as the housing bubble created a mortgage debt problem. For couples looking to buy a
house, it is more difficult to qualify for a home mortgage when even one of the buyers has student
debt, and even harder if both buyers have student debt.

Crippling Student Debt
The typical all–American dream is a great paying career, a happy family, and a good home to raise
them in. This is, however, only possible by going to college and getting a good education at a high–
cost university that buries you in debt. Often when discussing student loans the general consensus
are that students are in colossal financial struggles if they obtain degrees at good universities. The
myth of crippling student loan debt is, however, not typical. According to Harvard University's
National Center for Education Statistics, students that attend Harvard spend almost $60,000 a year
on tuition, however, the normal student at a four–year university spends almost half the cost at
approximately $30,000 a year, leaving the community

Student Debt
INTRODUCTION
This report examines the increasing trends in the amount of debt students are graduating with. The
purpose of this report is to prove why these trends need to be stopped, and how they can be stopped.
After viewing the statistics from 1993 to the present it will be obvious that student debt is not rising
at a steady pace, but that its growth is leading to large financial burdens by many students.
Recommendations are given about the actions that can be taken by not only students, but everyone
to help improve this dire situation. The changes that student loans have been through over the last
couple of years will have a lasting effect on current students, prospective students, parents, and
those who have graduated and ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
This could be a matter of convenience due to things such as online registration systems at some

ANALYSIS OF CAUSES OF INCREASING DEBT TRENDS
Reduction in Student Aid Programs
Student aid programs are being cut. The Pell Grant, which is set at $4050 per year for qualifying
students, is suffering. Because of the lack of increases in the Pell Grant, the buying power of this
grant is decreasing. It no longer is able to keep up with inflation rates (Talia Berman).
Increases in Interest Rates
In February, 2006, the Deficit Reduction Act passed through legislation. This act would ultimately
cut $12 billion from federal student aid. This act increased interest rates on student and parent
borrowers. The Stafford Loan interest rates rose from 5.3% to 7.14% on existing loan and 6.8% on
any loans taken out after this act passed (Talia Berman). What this act did do was lower income
taxes to those that made more than $1 million!

Regular Debt Vs Student Debt
Many students have argued that they will just take the extreme debt and file for bankruptcy later on
in life. The main problem with that argument is that they assume a student loan is similar to other
loans. For example in order to get out of a car loan debt you need to prove "undue hardship." With
student loan debts the taxpayers want to ensure that there is no way for you to just walk away from a
student loan debt. According to a Harvard Journal Article the difference between regular debt and
student loan debt is, "The Bankruptcy Code's treatment of education debt may reflect the view that a
loan from the government qualitatively differs from a loan from a commercial lender." Since they

Students Debt In College
Although the majority of students in college struggle with finances, STEM majors and
underrepresented minorities, specifically have a daunting task of paying for college at a remarkably
young age. According to the article, "Debt Overload", by the National Society of Professional
Engineers, "...28% of African American students reported $33,500 or more of undergraduate debt
compared to 15% of Caucasian students." Also, students with Science, Computer Science,
Engineering, Environmental Science, or Mathematics majors accrue over $20,000 a year in debt.
Majority of student loan debt exceeded $900 billion in the first quarter of 2012, up $30 billion from
the previous quarter, the Federal Reserve Bank of New York reported on May 31. This number has
increased by $663 billion since just 2003. Student debt is so widespread that two–thirds of the class
of 2010 graduated with loans averaging $25,250 each, according to the Project on Student Debt.
While studying the article, it was clear that another possible reason that students did not enter the

Student Debt Analysis
Student debt is a national crisis that can be avoided no longer. The Canadian youth have been
abandoned with the exponentially rising costs of university tuition, and if upward trends continue,
both the country and its citizens will be adversely affected. In order to stop the negative effects
caused, a change must must be made; making university tuition free. Although the cost would be
great, the consequential rewards of this investment would be far greater, in terms of national
prosperity and income equality. University education should be made free as it would greatly benefit
the Canadian economy and lessen the financial strains that students and their families face.

Student Debt : The Problem Of Student Loans Debt
Student Loans Debt
Student debt is a topic that generates a lot of debates. From politicians to lenders to students,
everyone has an opinion on the topic. With a trillion dollar national debt, it's not surprising why the
topic is such a huge issue and the solutions are even greater. The student debt is a form of debt that
is owed when a student has completed college or drop out. The average interest rates for the
ungraduated and graduated are 4.45% to 6% (Quadlin). To pay off all the students' debt, it will take
10–25 years to complete it. College students will have at least six months before they have to make
the first payment. Student debts can be a real problem for those who aren't preparing for them.
Student loans debt should have a longer grace period, lower monthly payments and repayment
programs that apply to all because students will be able to manage and repay their debts in a timely
manner.
The main problems with student debt are the high monthly payments, high interest, short grace
period, and repayment programs that does not apply to everyone. Majority of students can't pay back
loans they have borrowed because they aren't given enough time to pay them off. Students have at
least six months to pay off their debt before they get an increase in interest. Over 75% percent of

Student Debt Essay
Tuition and student debt at colleges and universities in America have been rising far more quickly
than inflation for over four decades. This is a trend that will continue without intervention. Student
debt drastically affects students' lives and decisions from getting married, to buying home, or to
starting a business. The amount of debt held by students after graduating not only negatively affects
the individual, but the economy as well. Loads of economic activity is currently halted by students
working to pay off their loans. This is a consequential problem and the increasing number of student
debt in America must be addressed.
While student debt has been an issue for quite some time, the steady increase annually is alarming.
According to MarketWatch, The average amount of debt per student upon graduating in 2015 was
$35,051; about $2,000 more than class of 2014 graduates. In comparison, the amount of debt per
student in 1993 stood just under $10,000. In a report by the Urban Institute, a Washington, DC–

graduates with more than $40,000 in student loans has increased by almost ten times in eight years.

you are looked down upon by employers. We put a college degree over productive work career.
When employers should start looking to see if you are eligible for a laboring job (and other careers
that do not need schooling) by your learning potential, motivation, integrity, and mental ability
instead of a piece of paper that tells your education and job experience. "We are setting up future

The Importance Of Student Debt
Today nearly 40 million Americans have accrued student debt. Student debt is something heavily
over looked while many people struggle to pay for their education. Some people argue that student
debt should be reduced or forgiven because of its affect on the economy and borrowers, while others
argue that its unfair to forgive this type of debt and that students should work while in college.
Meanwhile, universities continue to raise tuition, which some argue that is due to because of student
loans while others take the position that it is due to decreased state support.
Former students want the best possible opportunity for paying back loans. Aspects of borrowing
must change to improve the infrastructure of student debt. Incorporating risk assessment into student
loans and revising the Bankruptcy Code form a better alternative to improving the student debt
infrastructure. The goal of college is to finish, make money, and become successful. Life is very
hard trying to pay for anything without a job. Students who owe 10,000 dollars or more are less
likely to finish college. College is worthless if a person goes for one year and owes money back
immediately after that year. There is no grace period if you drop out of college. You must be
prepared for the bills that come next. Borrowers who pay what they earn and not they consume
would be well fitted for society. College graduates would argue that student debt is a debilitating

For starters, if you have around 30,000 of student debt, it can lower the amount of money you can
save in your 401k by 350,000 (Holland, Kelley Web Pg.1). This is because you need to pay interest
on your loan every year. That interest keeps people from starting retirement savings early. The later
you start saving, the less interest accrues in your 401k. That is how a 30,000 loan in someone's early
20's ends up snowballing into a massive reduction of retirement savings. Students from low income
families need to borrow more money therefore, it burdens them more than wealthy students,
widening the gap of inequality (Phelps, Hollis Pg. 12). The fact that student debt plagues the low

The Debt Of Student Loan Debt
Here in the United States, there are many forms of consumer debt, which help contribute to the large
sums of debt countless Americans find themselves faced with. Directly effecting many college
students is student loan debt. Student loan debt is now the second largest form of consumer debt
behind housing" declares the Federal Reserve Bank of New York (Grisales). This is due to the fact
that student loan debt grew 7.1% in 2014 to $1.2 trillion (Grisales). If this statistic alone is not
worrisome this next one is sure to be. The amount of debt in the housing market that helped to spark
the last recession was only $1.3 trillion (Grisales). Due to the increased amount of debt required by
students to attend college many students are feeling the wrath. According to the U.S. Census

what the student has achieved academically. Though interest rates are low with subsidized being
4.29% and unsubsidized being 5.84% ("Federal Student Aid" Interest rates and Fees), student loans
still have a huge effect on college students once they graduate. One college graduate's story helps

universities have increased the costs for students to attend their schools then increasing the amount
of debt these students take on as student loans. Reports have shown that borrowers who finished
college in the early 1990s were able to keep up managing their student loans without an enormous
burden. Some blame the economy for the debt increases but in the same 7–year period credit card
debt and auto debt have decreased. If student debt had stayed constant with inflation since 1992

Before 1976 student loans were dischargeable in bankruptcy; this policy did have some loopholes
though and when it comes to loopholes in money you do not want to leave many. Student loans
stopped becoming dischargeable because they were afraid that the students would take advantage of
the opportunity to file bankruptcy and rid themselves of student loan debt and drain the system.

Reducing Student Debt
The purpose of this report is to inform the chancellor of the issue surrounding higher education. The
issue of higher education is that it's failing to give millions of student's quality degrees at a
reasonable cost. College costs and student debt have been rising for the past years and it continues to
rise. States don't invest enough in schools to make colleges more affordable which leads to an
increase of tuition cost and student loans.

Also expanding federal Pell Grants would help millions of low–income Americans who depend on it
to attend college. Reducing student–loan interest rates for all federal loans would also help students
finish college. Also college student should be able to mandate income–based repayment plans,
which limit the amount that the borrower can afford to pay.
Key terms to use to help discuss the issue effectively would be "Making colleges more accessible
and affordable" so students would graduate debt–free. There should be efforts to help students pay
for college, reduce costs, and track down the bad schools that take advantage of students and give
them a degree that is worth nothing and end up in big debt. Also another key term should be "a

Student Debt Forgiveness
With student loan debt on the rise and more borrowers struggling to make their monthly payments,
many people want President Trump to take the reins and keep some of his campaign promises. In
October of 2016, then Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump proposed new student loan
guidelines that would cap total repayments at around 12.5 percent of a student loan holder's income
for 15 years from their graduation date. After 15 years, the proposal would forgive the rest of the
student loan holder's debt.
However, experts believe that hardline conservatives in the House and Senate will block any attempt
by President Trump and his administration to fully implement any student loan debt forgiveness.

The Trump administration is closely monitoring the roles of independent regulatory agencies since
the president signed the executive order to reduce the regulatory burdens created by Dodd–Frank.
Since many people consider the CFPB an independent agency, several student loan debt holders are
left to wonder if a federal agency will exist to help protect them from predatory lending practices.
The CFPB helps protect student loan borrowers from lenders who charge excessive fees or creating
obstacles that prevent people from paying off their debt. In January, the CFPB sued Navient, which
is the nation's largest student loan service provider. The CFPB website states that Navient defrauded
or deceived student loan debt holders for years by creating unnecessary obstacles that prevented
them from repaying their student loans. Now, many student loan borrowers fear that the CFPB may

Benefits Of Student Debt
Student debt is an aspect of life many across America share. There has been a push for more citizens
to attain post–secondary education, as more and more low–skill jobs are being shipped overseas. At
the same time, prices of going to college have gone up significantly, forcing many to obtain loans to
pay for this experience. Although it is often a worthwhile pursuit, the debt caused by these loans of
follow individuals long after they have graduated, sometimes lasting as long as twenty years or
more. And even though most are able to pay of their debts at some point, this burden is often
daunting and impacts those who are weighed down by it. Thus, in order to help people be free their
student debts I have compiled numerous ways to pay student debt off more quickly, as well as
reminding them that even though a college education has its costs, the benefits are worth it.
Although not technically a way to pay off student debts, obtaining as little as possible during a
student's time at college is a good first step. There are many alternatives to loans that don't come
with interest rates and need to repay them. These include scholarships, cash from working, and
federal grants. In regards to the former, scholarships serve as an opportunity to earn cash towards

college decreases, then the less qualified professionals we'll have in society. It brings us to another
issue that could arise... For people under student debt that decided to have kids or wed, regardless of

outcome could be depriving the children involved, having marital issues caused by finances, or

A major problem students encounter in higher education is debt. Students acquire these deficits in
higher education for many reasons such as credit card debt, student loans, and high payment plans.
Some people say that dues are not a problem, but it can have a great impact on a student's life – even
after college. This research will make people aware of the growing problem that is indebtedness.
Credit cards are one of the many factors that contribute to student debt. A larger proportion of
college students rely on credit cards for paying direct academic expenses. ''This includes textbooks,
school supplies, and tuition" (Min Zhan 134). Credit cards appear to be a great investment in
college, but they are also problematic. Credit cards are related to higher levels of student drop outs

Student Loan Debt
"Ensuring quality higher education is one of the most important things we can do for our future
generations" (Ron Lewis). There are more students enrolling in post–secondary schools than ever
before and consequently there are more students acquiring large debts. Once a student graduates,
they enter a $33,000 or more student loan debt (Students Loan Resources). These student loans
continue to place graduates into large debts, which is largely caused by their lack of knowledge of
available resources, and this impacts their everyday lives and future generations.
Many students do not know what they are paying for or understand how student loans work, and are
not fully aware of available resources. For assistance, most students know to go to financial aid,
however "financial aid offices allow students to borrow thousands of dollars with several mouse

For instance, Let 's say that I have received enough scholarships to only cover one semester of

instead of paying back what I borrowed with a reasonable amount of interest, I now owe two times
of what I primarily borrowed. Now while taking all of that into consideration, lets say that before I
applied and accepted the loans to cover the remaining cost of my college tuition, government
agencies took incentive to make sure that I understood the terms and conditions of the loans, which
could then prompt me to consider alternative resources, like getting a part or full time job and
continuing to apply for more scholarships.

Most of the student debts are a result of loans to fund their education. Student loans are significant
for education funding because it is a form of investment. However, the students are normally left
with huge debts after completing their studies and have to struggle financially to acknowledge the
debt when it falls due. This has a negative impact on an economy as these students will minimally
contribute towards their retirement savings due to the financial burden accelerated by the current

compared to other housing debts (Elliott & Nam, 2013). This is bound to have an adverse effect on

In addition these students will have problems in accessing loans due to poor ratings from the credit
reference bureaus, and hence have difficulties in purchasing assets such as houses and vehicles,

high consumption, and this will force the government to depend on the foreign lenders because its
citizens will lack disposable incomes. However, Valenti, Edelman, and Ostern (2013) observe that
student defaults will not result in a debt crisis. This is because at least ninety percent of student loans

As many would be led to believe, student debt affects the vast majority of young people in this
country. According to Daniels, seventy percent of students who have recently graduated are now
considered to be under the category of borrowers (2015). In relation to the population, that is a total
of forty million people (Daniels, 2015). Unfortunately, many of these students are reaching the point
of possibly defaulting on the loans they have accumulated (Daniels, 2015). Although students are
now being educated about being very careful when taking out loans, many do not have a choice.
Student debt seems like a nonstop revolving door for us young people. The sum of the student loan
debt that the population of forty million Americans has is a total of $1.2 trillion in college debt
(Student–loan debacle, 2014).
In Florida, the issue of student debt primarily affects students; however, it also affects the state as a

One argument is that "federal student loans have robust protections in place to help borrowers who
are in a tight spot"(Josuweit). Some of these protections are deferment and forbearance or income–
driven repayment plans. Forbearance can be used to pause monthly payments temporarily and
income–driven repayments can lower monthly payments to match the students income, costs of
living, and family size. These protections help out students who do not get a high–paying job right
out of college and may have to demonstrate unemployment or another economic hardship to qualify.
Equally important, "the Direct Loan program plays a key role in providing millions of Americans
with an opportunity to obtain a postsecondary education"(Josuweit). Without student loans, a great
deal of students would not have the opportunity to obtain a higher educational degree. Student loans
give the possibility to low–income families to be admitted into college without the doubt of not
being able to pay. Lastly, some argue that "the upside of student debt is that ... it may be possible to
earn significantly more or to pursue a more personally fulfilling career, making the debt financially
or emotionally worthwhile"(Fontinelle). This argument comes from if one wants to enjoy their job,
they need to get the correct amount of education in their field of desire, no matter the debt.

books and supplies, graduates are paying more that they can afford for their education. The average
Virginia college graduate leaves school more than $29,000 in debt (Marcus). Unfortunately, students
feel like they have to go to college to succeed in life and with the rising cost of school, their debt can
only get bigger.
b. Size. How large is the problem? Increasing or decreasing? What result can be expected if the
problem is not solved? According to the Department of Education, federal student loan debt totaled
$1.2 trillion this year, after skyrocketing from $55.9 billion in 2005 (Marcus). At public colleges,
tuition has generally been driven up by increased spending from administrators, student support
services, and the need to make up for reductions in government subsidies, according to a report
issued by the Delta Cost Project, a nonprofit based in Washington, D.C.(Kim). Since the recession
hit in 2008, students and graduates have been faced with the reality of unemployment after

Student Debt Crisis

  • 1. Student Debt Crisis 1.0 Introduction A student loan is designed to help students pay for university tuition, books, and living expenses. It may differ from other types of loans in that the interest rate may be substantially lower and the repayment schedule may be deferred while the student is still in education. It also differs in many countries in the strict laws regulating renegotiating and bankruptcy. There are two types of student loan that can be applied which are federal student loan and private student loan. Basically, students are more prefer to make a loan in federal student loan because the fixed interest rate wouldn't affect the payment that they have to pay even the interest rate rise. In addition, government also provide free insurance ...

So that, the student that borrow private loan which have high interest rate just give a burden for their family to settle the debt. Since the family have responsible to pay the debt together with the interest rate, they will have no saving in future. 5.6 Could slow economic recovery in housing market The extensive amount of national debt held by college graduates in federal student loans debt is affecting their ability to qualify for a home loan and a delay in housing market growth. Students coming out of college today have more federal student loan debt than ever and they're coming into an economy that is under performing. The $1 trillion in student loan debt is starting to slow the economy just as the housing bubble created a mortgage debt problem. For couples looking to buy a house, it is more difficult to qualify for a home mortgage when even one of the buyers has student debt, and even harder if both buyers have student debt. 5.7 Decrease the liquidity of bank Banks may also face difficulty in providing liquidity during a debt crisis if ...

This is, however, only possible by going to college and getting a good education at a high– cost university that buries you in debt. Often when discussing student loans the general consensus are that students are in colossal financial struggles if they obtain degrees at good universities. The myth of crippling student loan debt is, however, not typical. According to Harvard University's National Center for Education Statistics, students that attend Harvard spend almost $60,000 a year on tuition, however, the normal student at a four–year university spends almost half the cost at approximately $30,000 a year, leaving the community ...

The purpose of this report is to prove why these trends need to be stopped, and how they can be stopped. After viewing the statistics from 1993 to the present it will be obvious that student debt is not rising at a steady pace, but that its growth is leading to large financial burdens by many students. Recommendations are given about the actions that can be taken by not only students, but everyone to help improve this dire situation. The changes that student loans have been through over the last couple of years will have a lasting effect on current students, prospective students, parents, and those who have graduated and ...

Other scenarios include students exhausting the lower cost methods of paying for tuition such as student loans or payment plans (American Council on Education). Source: American Council on Education Issue Brief – July 2006 Figure 2. Credit Card Ownership and Behavior of Traditional–Age Undergraduates ANALYSIS OF CAUSES OF INCREASING DEBT TRENDS Reduction in Student Aid Programs Student aid programs are being cut. The Pell Grant, which is set at $4050 per year for qualifying students, is suffering. Because of the lack of increases in the Pell Grant, the buying power of this grant is decreasing. It no longer is able to keep up with inflation rates (Talia Berman). Increases in Interest Rates In February, 2006, the Deficit Reduction Act passed through legislation. This act would ultimately cut $12 billion from federal student aid. This act increased interest rates on student and parent borrowers. The Stafford Loan interest rates rose from 5.3% to 7.14% on existing loan and 6.8% on any loans taken out after this act passed (Talia Berman). What this act did do was lower income taxes to those that made more than $1 million! Rising tuition

  • 14. Regular Debt Vs Student Debt Many students have argued that they will just take the extreme debt and file for bankruptcy later on in life. The main problem with that argument is that they assume a student loan is similar to other loans. For example in order to get out of a car loan debt you need to prove "undue hardship." With student loan debts the taxpayers want to ensure that there is no way for you to just walk away from a student loan debt. According to a Harvard Journal Article the difference between regular debt and student loan debt is, "The Bankruptcy Code's treatment of education debt may reflect the view that a loan from the government qualitatively differs from a loan from a commercial lender."

Students Debt In College Although the majority of students in college struggle with finances, STEM majors and underrepresented minorities, specifically have a daunting task of paying for college at a remarkably young age. According to the article, "Debt Overload", by the National Society of Professional Engineers, "...28% of African American students reported $33,500 or more of undergraduate debt compared to 15% of Caucasian students." Also, students with Science, Computer Science, Engineering, Environmental Science, or Mathematics majors accrue over $20,000 a year in debt. Majority of student loan debt exceeded $900 billion in the first quarter of 2012, up $30 billion from the previous quarter, the Federal Reserve Bank of New York reported on May 31. This number has increased by $663 billion since just 2003. Student debt is so widespread that two–thirds of the class of 2010 graduated with loans averaging $25,250 each, according to the Project on Student Debt. While studying the article, it was clear that another possible reason that students did not enter the STEM profession was because they could not afford to go in debt for a degree that often required further education after a Bachelors. At the same time, the country is ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... Jensen states that seven differences between middle–class and low–income students show up at school and by understanding those differences and how to address them, teachers can help mitigate some of the negative effects of poverty.

Student Debt At The Usa Although there are indeed significantly cheaper options in terms of higher education within the USA – the most affordable four year degree that can be earned amounts to $75,772 – those who choose to pursue more reasonably priced schooling nevertheless find themselves burdened with extreme debt ("Study in the USA," 2015). To illustrate, student debt in the USA is presently at a record high, as nearly 40 million Americans currently owe loans that hover around $35,000 ("Student Debt Protests," 2016). To further exacerbate the situation, these 40 million Americans are not just expected to start paying back the original $35,000 once they find full–time employment, they are also confronted with a sizable interest rate of 3.8% which makes it much ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... As the nation with the most expensive system of higher education in the developed world, not only do students in the USA borrow much more substantial amounts of money to meet escalating college costs, the USA is in fact the only country on the planet where their combined student debt – altogether equaling between $902 billion and –$1.2 trillion – outpaces all other types of consumer debt ("College Debt Crisis," 2013). On the contrary, youth living in Sweden who have their hearts set on further education – whether that be a bachelor degree, an exchange program, or even a doctoral study – are exempt from paying tuition fees at any higher institution in the country ("Fees and Costs," 2016). The only mandatory fee that a Swedish student is required to pay for their schooling is an exceptionally small student union fee each semester – which covers the costs of a student card, public transportation systems, in addition to entry into an assortment of activities to facilitate social integration – which equals around SEK 300 ("Fees and Costs," 2016).

  • 26. Increasing Student Debt There are several governmental issues facing the American people in this day in age. Many of these issues have come to the fore front during the Presidential Campaign of 2016. One of the most popular and important issues in the United States is student loans. Colleges are full of expensive fees such as tuition, textbooks, and room and board. Many college students can't afford to pay all of these fees and are forced to take a student loan. However, the interest rates on student loans are rapidly increasing each year. This leaves many college graduates in the open world with great debt that takes a long time to pay off. In January of 2016, Minnesota Office of Higher Education officials have unveiled the "SELF Refi" refinancing program which aims ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... Due to the high cost of many colleges and universities, students are forced to borrow more and more money each year to pay for their education. The reason that student loans are so crippling to students is because the interest rates are very high. Students often take multiple years to fully pay off their student loans and this can negatively affect them when they make important life decisions such as buying a house or car. I believe the way to solve the issue at hand is to increase taxes for the rich in order to reduce interest rates for student loans in order to stabilize our economy and decrease the amount of debt college graduates are faced ...

The Canadian youth have been abandoned with the exponentially rising costs of university tuition, and if upward trends continue, both the country and its citizens will be adversely affected. In order to stop the negative effects caused, a change must must be made; making university tuition free. Although the cost would be great, the consequential rewards of this investment would be far greater, in terms of national prosperity and income equality. University education should be made free as it would greatly benefit the Canadian economy and lessen the financial strains that students and their families face. Canada should implement free university tuition as it will decrease the ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... This would be an enormous cost to the government, but, as shown, the country's return would be much greater, not only for the country, but the citizens as well. This should be seen as a large, long– term investment, rather than a substantial cost, and the German experience with the implementation has evidently demonstrated that the return–on investment is quite substantial. Through acting promptly towards this concern, Canada can avoid a major crisis that will only continue to negatively impact the country.

From politicians to lenders to students, everyone has an opinion on the topic.

Student debt is something heavily over looked while many people struggle to pay for their education. Some people argue that student debt should be reduced or forgiven because of its affect on the economy and borrowers, while others argue that its unfair to forgive this type of debt and that students should work while in college. Meanwhile, universities continue to raise tuition, which some argue that is due to because of student loans while others take the position that it is due to decreased state support. Former students want the best possible opportunity for paying back loans. Aspects of borrowing must change to improve the infrastructure of student debt. Incorporating risk assessment into student loans and revising the Bankruptcy Code form a better alternative to improving the student debt infrastructure. The goal of college is to finish, make money, and become successful. Life is very hard trying to pay for anything without a job. Students who owe 10,000 dollars or more are less likely to finish college. College is worthless if a person goes for one year and owes money back immediately after that year. There is no grace period if you drop out of college. You must be prepared for the bills that come next. Borrowers who pay what they earn and not they consume would be well fitted for society.

For starters, if you have around 30,000 of student debt, it can lower the amount of money you can save in your 401k by 350,000 (Holland, Kelley Web Pg.1). This is because you need to pay interest on your loan every year. That interest keeps people from starting retirement savings early. The later you start saving, the less interest accrues in your 401k. That is how a 30,000 loan in someone's early 20's ends up snowballing into a massive reduction of retirement savings. Students from low income families need to borrow more money therefore, it burdens them more than wealthy students, widening the gap of inequality (Phelps, Hollis Pg. 12).

The lending is often of a student loan, but debts will be owed to the school if the student has dropped classes and withdrawn from the school. Withdrawing from a school, especially if a low or no–income student has withdrawn with a failing grade could deprive the student of the ability of further attendance by disqualifying the student of necessary financial aid.

The growing problem of student debt has become more prominent in the past decade inspiring many documentaries that check the causes and effects.

Reports have shown that borrowers who finished college in the early 1990s were able to keep up managing their student loans without an enormous burden. Some blame the economy for the debt increases but in the same 7–year period credit card debt and auto debt have decreased.

There are more students enrolling in post–secondary schools than ever before and consequently there are more students acquiring large debts. Once a student graduates, they enter a $33,000 or more student loan debt (Students Loan Resources). These student loans continue to place graduates into large debts, which is largely caused by their lack of knowledge of available resources, and this impacts their everyday lives and future generations. Many students do not know what they are paying for or understand how student loans work, and are not fully aware of available resources. For assistance, most students know to go to financial aid, however "financial aid offices allow students to borrow thousands of dollars with several mouse clicks on online portals" (Farrington). Many students are not properly informed of their options, such as the many scholarships available to them, but simply take only what is shown to them.

It 's a trap for the rest of your life because the laws are designed so that you can 't get out of it. If a business, say, gets in too much debt, it can declare bankruptcy, but individuals can almost never be relieved of student debt through bankruptcy." This compelling statement was made by American activist, linguist, journalist and philosopher, Noam Chomsky. On the topic of student debt, I realize that it is by far one of the most largest and most considerable issue plaguing college graduates today.

For instance, Let 's say that I have received enough scholarships to only cover one semester of college tuition. So in reaction, I apply for enough loans to cover the remaining cost of one year of college. However, because I didn 't completely understand the terms of the loans that I accepted, instead of paying back what I borrowed with a reasonable amount of interest, I now owe two times of what I primarily borrowed. Now while taking all of that into consideration, lets say that before I applied and accepted the loans to cover the remaining cost of my college tuition, government agencies took incentive to make sure that I understood the terms and conditions of the loans, which could then prompt me to consider alternative resources, like getting a part or full time job and continuing to apply for more scholarships. I believe that for many individuals the use of loans are inevitable. However, If students are exposed to more alternative programs and methods such as, scholarships, grants and work study, it will decrease not only the amount of debt that these students will obtain, but it will also forestall the potential of students damaging their credits.

Student loans are significant for education funding because it is a form of investment. However, the students are normally left with huge debts after completing their studies and have to struggle financially to acknowledge the debt when it falls due.

One argument is that "federal student loans have robust protections in place to help borrowers who are in a tight spot"(Josuweit). Some of these protections are deferment and forbearance or income– driven repayment plans. Forbearance can be used to pause monthly payments temporarily and income–driven repayments can lower monthly payments to match the students income, costs of living, and family size. These protections help out students who do not get a high–paying job right out of college and may have to demonstrate unemployment or another economic hardship to qualify. Equally important, "the Direct Loan program plays a key role in providing millions of Americans with an opportunity to obtain a postsecondary education"(Josuweit). Without student loans, a great deal of students would not have the opportunity to obtain a higher educational degree. Student loans give the possibility to low–income families to be admitted into college without the doubt of not being able to pay. Lastly, some argue that "the upside of student debt is that ... it may be possible to earn significantly more or to pursue a more personally fulfilling career, making the debt financially or emotionally worthwhile"(Fontinelle). This argument comes from if one wants to enjoy their job, they need to get the correct amount of education in their field of desire, no matter the debt.

According to the Department of Education, federal student loan debt totaled $1.2 trillion this year, after skyrocketing from $55.9 billion in 2005 (Marcus). At public colleges, tuition has generally been driven up by increased spending from administrators, student support services, and the need to make up for reductions in government subsidies, according to a report issued by the Delta Cost Project, a nonprofit based in Washington, D.C.(Kim). Since the recession hit in 2008, students and graduates have been faced with the reality of unemployment after graduation.
