Meanwhile foreigners are coming in with zero student loan debt from schools with Engineering programs that are officially ABET-accredited (meaning they’re United States’s Engineering curriculum-standard) because college in their country is free.
It cost me $40k out of pocket for two years of Engineering courses. I’m glad I didn’t have to take a loan on it. So whatever I make from day one of my degree goes straight to use. There are people who will have to take a loan on $50k-$200k worth of college courses to get their degree and got to pay that off.
College isn’t a scam, the financial system around it is.
