One of my cousins just graduate from college here in California. Over a six year period he raked up a $100k in school loans. He changed majors right in the middle from engineering to finances, and maintained straight As all the way through. He worked at both Nordstroms and BOA as a teller, but also worked at the college in the student store and the admin office - as well as being a dorm supervisor the entire time. Our family business also pitched in to cover some of his expenses. He walked away owing nothing, and just snagged a high end job with a computer company making six figures.

It all depends on how bad you want it.

I'm not saying we need to do away with school loans, but it is possible to go to college without coming out in debt.
