Quotes:
"the cost is always one of the major concerns. “How much is this going to cost me? How am I going to afford it when I’m’ done? What are my options for paying for it? What can we do in order to keep the cost low?”"
"right now the average is about $37,000 for a student graduating. And so, they go into the workforce with about $37,000 in debt today."
"however, when you look at the state of Utah, we are the number one in the country with an average student debt of $18,425."
"we’re actually lower than the Utah average, which is $16,824."
"we hear these students who can’t afford to pay their student debt, but one of the things that they need to know is that there are options."
"you go to a very expensive school and get a lot of debt and your options are limited because you have to make a lot of money. And if you can’t make it, then you’re in trouble"
"if a student wanted to, they could borrow way more than they needed, live way high on the hog for a few years, and then spend a long time paying it back."
