Should You Borrow To Attend College Online?
Financial Aid Information  >  Consumer's Guide to Student Loans

Ivan Sanchez is two months behind on his student loan repayments. He owes $1,400, and soon will owe nearly $2,000. He has a new baby—his third—at home, and just $300 in the bank.
Five years ago, Sanchez earned an online associate degree in networking and security from EPCI College of Technology plus an online bachelor’s degree in management from the University of Phoenix Online, in hopes of advancing his IT career. While his employer chipped in $15,000, Sanchez was left owing $45,000.
Sanchez was promoted, but his $10,000 raise wasn’t enough to keep up with his student loan payments.
