Are student loans worth it???

[Wildflowerlover]

Hi! I'm a high school junior and am considering all of my options for college. I'm planning on getting my BSN. I've been dreaming about going to an amazing four year private Christian University in another state, but I've realized my family can't afford that. I have over a 4.0 GPA and have worked my booty off in high school. I feel like it would be disappointing to go to a community college and transfer. I've always wanted to go away and experience life somewhere new. Where I live the people who go to the community college never leave the local area. Although I live in a lovely area, I have always wanted to go out of state to college. I would really appreciate hearing any personal experiences anyone has with this! Are the student loans worth it? Did you pay them off quickly? Is the "college experience" all it's cracked up to be?

Thank you for reading!!

If getting out of smallville is what's important to you then I recommend travel nursing after you graduate. I can never recommend anyone to take out loans for any kind of degree. If you get a full ride scholarship that's fine but not smart to go into debt
