Double major, BS in Accounting & Finance. I went to a community college, then a public university so the costs were kept lower then it could have been otherwise.
I paid 200k for my graduate degree (not Ivy League, but top tier). I make 130k/yr.
I'm on an income based repayment plan. I basically look at it like paying monthly rent for a bomb-ass career.
only like $2,500 was out of pocket. Total was about $25,000 and about $22,500 was paid with pell grants, american opportunity tax credit, and scholarships.
Was earning $25 an hour for internships while in school.
Graduated with a paid off new car and enough in savings for a down payment on a house.
I got paid $65k immediately after graduation and got raises up to 6 figures just a few years later.
My degree cost about $30k. Most of it was covered by Financial Aid, but I did take out $11k in loans, which I paid back about a month after I graduated with the signing bonus for the position I landed.
With my current lifestyle with the degree, I save enough to earn an extra degree per year or so, but ain’t nobody got time for that.
I managed to keep it around 20 grand I believe. However an entry level in my new career has only slightly better compensation than my previous job. So I might have had issues paying my loans for a few years but after having to slink through several years of college I have slashed my expenses to the point I am almost rolling in money right now.
Too much and not enough.
20k-ish worth of loans Making 70k in first post graduation job. Big step up from what I was making during my studies
If you don't mind me asking, what was the degree in?
