If you’re a college student, the parent of a college student, or a parent planning for your child’s future, you know that pursuing higher education has become more essential to unlock wealth building careers in STEM. As a result, college degrees have become more expensive. It’s no wonder that student loan debt in 2020 is now about $1.56 trillion!

But there are ways of pursuing this dream without falling in debt for most of your life. Student loans suck, but luckily, they’re not the only way to finance your college education. Make sure you know all of your options, so that you and your child can make the best financial decision for their future!
