There’s a way to avoid student loans all together and it starts with Dual Enrollment in high school, taking CLEP exams and going to a low or no cost local community college THEN a four year university if that’s your goal.

If this student loan crisis is so horrible (it is horrible) that the student loans need to be forgiven, why aren’t they going to stop giving out student loans? It's so intellectually dishonest, and this problem will just continue to hurt Americans.
For those of you still carrying the burden of tens or even hundreds of thousands of dollars in student loan debt, don't lose hope. We are right here beside you, and you still have the power to get yourself out of this mess. Remember, no matter how today's news impacts you personally, YOU are the one in control of YOUR life. Your future success will be a result of YOUR hard work and sacrifice.
If you haven't seen it yet, you've got to check out my team’s award-winning documentary, Borrowed Future. It’s helping people understand the truth about student loans and what they’re doing to our nation. Everyone needs to see this. It's time for everyone to understand just how awful the federal student loan program is, and how it's holding people back from living their lives.

The University of Oklahoma will accept 60 college credits. Without taking a class.
Through something called the CLEP Exams.
34 different subject areas to choose from and 90 minutes long.
https://t.co/udyPzhhSAb has free CLEP Exam study material for almost every exam. (1/2)
@fervent_steel@EDSecMcMahon To try and control the cost of college and get the colleges to lower the cost isn’t realistic.
Instead, more need to start college while in high school.
With the right strategy, they can save thousands by using community college and the CLEP Exam
We crashed a college tour 😎
My daughter and I explored our local university a few weekends.
There were lots of families there
and several campus tours happening.
She said: “Let’s follow one!”
“Sure, I said.”
I did a quick internet search on cost

@cliftonsellers Because we can’t even attempt to solve everything for everyone.
We won’t even make it out of the starting blocked.
Me? I solve parents worry about how to pay first college.
How? Start college early IN high school.
You can save tens of thousands of dollars doing this.
@iamcoriarnold Another option that isn’t talked about enough is starting college IN high school.
Use your local community college and take a $2,500 university course for $300 at the CC.
Take the CLEP exams first college credit.
Save tens of thousands of dollars and then use the 529 Plan
@SaraWeissman@insidehighered@liamhknox I’d love if a focus was on graduating instead of just enrollment
The 6 year graduation rate averages 62%.
That’s the number I’m more concerned about
Keep the students you’re enrolling and becomes less of a burden to find new students
