Who said "all"? I will assert, without data because per-school or per-school-type data is hard to come by, that most of the debt problems are caused by students choosing (or being pressured) to attend expensive private or out-of-state schools with insufficient financial aid.
- tombert 7y agoSure, and maybe I misinterpreted a bit of what the OP was saying, but the impression I got was an almost-hostile tone of "this stuff is your fault because you couldn't settle for a cheaper school", and I do think that's reductionist. However, if that wasn't the OP's intent then I admit fault and apologize.
