    I haven’t even graduated yet and I will have $60000. Someone who was born poor like me should never go to university. It’s cruel how poor kids are lied to and told they can live out their dreams. The government just wanted to trap me into debt.

      Sorry, I understand this so much. You can do this. Look at ways you can pay it little by little and either start looking for jobs that will pay you a living wage or minimum wage jobs to start getting some cash flow in the meantime. Your life is starting now. Take on the challenge and you’ll come out on top. Make sure you take care of yourself first eat and sleep as best as you can and take it easy.

      As long as you're going in for a useful major you'll be fine. I'm going into engineering and going about $30,000 in debt but the starting salary is $65,000-$75,000. Plus I invest 50% of my money so it should be paid off in like 5 years lol. As long as you're smart about it, you'll be fine.

      I ended up withdrawal from my program due to personal reasons and other factors, however, i managed to pay off my student loans with the funding OSAP given me back in May ish of 2020. Until recently, I realized my grants were converted to loans in November of 2020. And now I owe money which they didn't inform me until this month.

    Just curious, why did you not take student loans from the government? The interest rate is so high through the banks. I have about 40k student loans after graduating nursing school, i paid it off in a year. But I was also staying with my parents during that time.
    About the scholarships you are very right, I never really paid attention to it while in school.

    students are graduating to get Jobs and learn the Trade, not to be good people. for self-learning and to be a good person high school education is free. It's fair trade, if someone is doing business of course will take the loan, correct? this is the same, so take education very seriously like it's a business.

    Personally I think domestic Canadian students don't actually own much student debt as international students (unless their parents can't pay for tuition and you have to pay everything on your own)... they will be paying significantly more tuition than domestic students, and also there are only a very limited option for them to fund their further education. I've contacted GrantMe about this issue but apparently no international programs exist.😢 I've been searching for a genuine scholarship organization which really helps international students (not like those which pay $2000 or less, that would not even be 5% of total tuition I need to pay as an international student) but nothing came helpful to me. Do you have any other options for international students to help pay for their valuable education (I could apply for entrance scholarships but those are extremely hard to get, and please take in mind that I would be paying $60,000+ per year for UofT, that's over $240,000 at the time of graduation😢)

      @Bill.i.3231 4 года назад

      @Make or Break TV maybe but it highly depends now.. this sort of value in attaining a degree ain't the same as it was 20-40 years ago. Higher education has now become a risky investment decision more than a guarantee in attaining a high paying job like it did when boomers graduated from university (unless you did your research and know which major is worth its value).honestly attaining a technical skill isn't a stupid decision considering the fact that it'll help you attain enough money to invest for a down payment without thinking of repaying student loans, meanwhile someone who studied a major bachelors in university is either struggling to find a job due to majoring in (lets say..)psychology or he/she is struggling to payout his/her student loans which btw has a high interest rate...of course this degree will find its way to have its worth but how long should one wait? 5-10 years? 20 years?

      @rejuvenateme4338 3 года назад

      @@debtfreeforcanadians9386 Doesn't time play a factor in inflation as well as momentum? University costs will go up each year so why put it off. Unless you meant part-time work with university(?) Recomnend Highly: Apply for scholarships, bursaries, grants and low interest loans plus pursue a career that will allow you to pay off debt within 3years of working. The waiting to save money route may backfire & it is a well known fact that once students start working and making an income and on track with a job they rarely go back to school & the struggling uni/college student life. Then comes marriage, kids, more expenses, obligations & you miss your window of opportunity & time. Go now just like you naturally go from grade 9 to 10 or grade 11 to 12 I strongly suggest following that structured path to college/University on the same cobtinuous timeline- Momentum is Motivation!
