    Which major did you pick and which uni did you go to? I wonder how your loan got so large.

      Not the person you replied to, but US university costs are outrageous. To give a slightly extreme example, the tuition & fees for Southern Methodist University in Dallas was ~$61,980 for the 2022-23 school year, not including housing/dining costs or financial aid.

      My major is computer info systems. And I am not sure how it got so high. I’m gonna talk to my loan people because I think it was supposed to have been froze at one point to not aceue interest and it never was. I went to a one year school thing and then a year later went to an actual college and I was told that it would not collect interest while I was at college.

      My uni was super expensive when I went there, and I think tuition has since doubled.

      I just checked, and tuition for my alma mater in the US is now $83,000/yr for a resident student. For comparison, my tuition for my grad school here in Japan was $15,000/yr and that was one of the more expensive private univerisities here.
