Parent PLUS loans

Colleges and Universities A-Z Howard University

<p>Hi folks,</p>

<p>I am reviving my account from 2004 (8 years ago!) when I went to college. I'm now a journalist with The Chronicle of Higher Education and I'm writing about parent PLUS loans.</p>

<p>Howard is a school where the average PLUS loan is very high and we want to know why parents (hopefully there are a few of you around here!) think it's worth it to take on this kind of debt to pay for college. What is it about Howard that makes it worth it?</p>

<p>So please direct message me if you or your friends have a story to share. I can give you my personal contact info there.</p>

<p>i am not a parent but most of my friends older siblings have gone to Howard and their parents say they take on so much loans because of the rich legacy and opportunities that Howard can offer after … almost every graduate from howard has gone into great positions within their field. I am actually looking into transferring to Howard but i would be paying for college on my own through grants and scholarships. hope this helps</p>
