Before taking on debt you should truthfully ask yourself if you did everything in your power to advance. Did you even apply to any jobs you want? Or, did you assume you were not worthy and give up. You identify your own shortfalls (such as your geographic location), but demonstrate no action to change the circumstance. In addition, even Harvard degrees guarantee nothing.

Find some medium size company who might even pay for it and work toward your dream. Best of luck to you!
