I am a 23 year-old full time college student. I have a seven month old daughter, I am unmarried but, my daughters' mother and I are together. My girlfriend claims our baby and receives finical aid since my mother is able to help me with my tuition. I will receive my associates in business administration this summer. When I am done with this degree I am going to start working on a bachelor degree in accounting. I will be basically starting over with four more years of school ahead of me.
To finish up my business administration degree I am taking 16 credit hours his semester, and I am going to take out a student loan as I am the main bread winner, and unable to work as much with my schooling.
This has raised the question of should I take out student loans to help cover living expenses? I think that my future earning power makes it worth taking out more loans so I can concentrate on school. What is your opinion?
Thank you,
Austin Goodrich
