Reply #6: Why does it cost so much? [View All]

I find it hard to believe that a poor student still can't get through college with a minimum amount of debt. But that might mean living in on-campus housing, forgoing a car, and basically living like a student for 4 years. I'm in graduate school and, yes, tuition is expensive. I have mortgage and other bills, so continue to work full-time. If I were an undergrad or not married, you can bet I'd be living on campus and taking out the most minimum of student loans.
