Are you trying to decide if going to college is the right choice for you? If so, you are more than likely concerned about how much money you are going to have to pay. The fact of the matter is that paying for college can be an expensive endeavor. This leads many people to contemplate the question, “Is it worth going to college?” While you may know the answer to this question, others struggle with it time after time.

So , this summer I wanted to take an anatomy class online. I have been considering pharmacy school but to get in to the accelerated program I would need to take a few additional classes.

My student loan debt is considerable already but is deferred thanks to an economic hardship deferment (it's sad when having a career as a teacher puts you in the economic hardship category).

So I sign up for the class. Pay cash for the class (I don't need any more student loan debt). Get an A. All is well.

A month down the road I get a bill for my first student loan payment.
