    When was that, how much was tuition? Because the average cost of college per year (tuition, fees, and regular daily expenses) in the US is about $38k. Assuming they worked half-time, they’d have to be making about $36/hr to cover that cost.

    Personally I took out loans, took extra classes to graduate early, and paid off my loans years early after graduation. Federal loans make sense for most people.
