I paid my way through college and technical training but really it was not nearly as expensive as it is today. If there were predatory loan practices then those institutions should be held accountable but if it's just a student loan then no.
My four years of college in 1992 cost me $2,000 a semester. A 2023 self couldn't touch it for that. My technical school was a low interest installment plan. $777 a month. Not easy but I got it done with room mates and a bus pass. I'm not sure if they do installments anymore but the same program is around $25k now.
