I have even heard of some ex military kats making fake certification / degree programs to get the GI Bill money for folks and eventually got busted.
I know a chick that got caught up doing that. She got a "degree" thru some college in New Zealand. The real lick was when they opened up that you could transfer your GI Bill to anybody, I knew cats who were selling their shyt for like $30-50k under the table. They didn't care. They got their bachelors or associates using TA and that was as far as they wanted to go in academia.

They've been taking Ls for years now.

The idea that Black people going to college is a "scam," when we have some of the lowest rates of attendance and graduation has always been idiotic.
We navigate more barriers as a people in dealing with education than other races and ethnic groups, but higher education *completion* is absolutely a worthwhile endeavor and improves everything from life expectancy and health to long-term earning goals and child success.

Everyone who can enroll in PSLF should immediately.
It’s really sad that some people found your comment funny.

That skip college shyt is always wrong. We as a people greatly benefit from college.

Yep I knew a kat that did that too. Its so many hustles ex military kats know and some do...using their military benefits some times selling them to others for profit.

I wouldn't say college is a scam, it's whatever you make of it.

If I could redo it, I'd probably pick another field and network better

it seems if you made a payment during the "payment pause" you can get a refund up to $10K too.

just did this today. i paid off my loan a few months ago, cause i kept making payments during rona...but gonna get that 10K back and offset it w/ the new relief program

It’s your job not to fall for it. Go to a community college or city college and network
This is true. Even if someone wants to go to a university, it would be beneficial to take some courses at a CC beforehand. Kids in high school are even taking courses at a CC to get a jump-start

The whole financial system around college is fukked. Prices are so high because the loans are guaranteed by the govt.

I remember back in high school ppl use to laugh at CC college only to regret it later. Also CC college is much easier and less streasfull
