Student Stories

“Debt is a vicious cycle. The school I went to defrauded me and I got in way over my head to pay their tuition. It was the only option I saw so I signed up. Soon after, I got divorced and became a single mom. I could never get out of the debt hole cycle completely. This incurred high interest and everything spiraled.

With the federal student loans off my credit report and without this monthly payment, I can better support my son and me without credit cards. This changed my life and I feel like I can breathe again.”

“I won't have to shake my head in disappointed when I check my credit report seeing the over $50,000 on my credit report for a 2yr associate degree.

I feel like I have a chance to start my life all over.”

“We were told that a college degree was the only way to succeed in life. But instead of delivering on their promises, they preyed on us. They exaggerated job placement rates and the value of their degrees, leaving many of us with massive debt and few opportunities. We're now worse off than before we enrolled, struggling under the weight of loans we can't repay.

We need accountability for predatory schools and relief for borrowers who were deceived. Without meaningful action, this crisis will continue to devastate lives and limit opportunities for generations to come.”

“The burden of these loans has weighed heavily on me for years, causing significant financial strain and emotional distress.

With this debt now forgiven, I feel a tremendous sense of relief and a renewed sense of hope for the future. I can now focus on rebuilding my financial stability, pursuing my career goals, and improving my overall well-being.”

“Having the debt hanging over our heads with a useless degree is much more detrimental to us than most people think.

Having had to pay almost double, if not triple, what normal people pay for degrees to attend an online university then find out they offer no job placement, they are not accredited, I cannot use my degree to get my bachelor's, and I would have to start all over is heartbreaking mentally and financially.”

“Relief for the Sweet class is not "loan forgiveness," it is a court-approved settlement for defrauded borrowers based on federal law and should not be interfered with.”
