<p>“Almost everyone has college debt nowadays. To graduate from college WITHOUT debt is for the lucky few and very rich. Many of the CC parents have college loan debt but they don’t regret sending their children to their first (or best) choice schools.”</p>
<p>Very true. Even middle class students who for financial reasons had to pass up their first choice private colleges and go to in state publics graduate with debt – or their parents carry debt for them to attend college.</p>
<p>I know very few families who don’t take on debt for their kids to go to college. After all, college is a major purchase – even much more costly than a car. Most people take on debt to buy cars, so of course they have to do the same to pay for college.</p>
