After taking out such a huge student loan, can I really walk away from this, or do I have to see it through?
  • Why not switch schools?

    What about switching schools?

    Student loan payments do not come due if you're still in school, even if you switch schools or even majors. And existing loans can be transferred to a new school. Yes, it's a pain. But more painful than suffering through another year at a school you hate? I doubt it.

    Not all schools are full of sadistic professors. Perhaps H would be happier finishing her MBA at an average or pretty-good school that's closer to the love of her life, instead of the fancy-pants business school that sounded so good on paper.
