Should student debt be a major deterrent in determining which university to attend?
While there are many factors to consider when choosing a college, one of my largest has been the cost to attend. I know there is no clear-cut answer to whether or not a certain university is worth attending over the other, but should student debt be one of the most important (if not the most important) aspects? Is debt really that hard to live with or is it a mostly just an inconvenience? #student-debt #college

You asked a very important question. During my years in Human Resources and College Recruiting, I have learned two things: it does not really matter where you go to school (the important thing is how well you do and what you do while there to make connections with others in your career area and get career exposure) and a college education is like any other business decision which should be made in a prudent manner allowing you to make the lowest prudent investment to enjoy the highest return on that investment.
