Inspiration
Murky financial aid letters and scattered information on costs of attendance make it hard for students to understand the financial commitment that school represents. As a result, 1 in 3 students with debt end up dropping out of school and millions of Americans have fallen behind on their federal loans while the amount of student debt rises to unprecedented levels.
