Student Debt & College Affordability

How should we address the student debt crisis? From loan forgiveness to free college.

1

No forgiveness

No loan cancellation; borrowers repay in full; market-driven tuition

2

Income-driven repayment

Expand existing programs; forgiveness after 20-25 years of payments

3

Targeted relief

Cancel $10-20K for low/middle income borrowers; regulate tuition increases

4

Broad cancellation

Cancel $50K+ per borrower; free community college; subsidized state schools

5

Full cancellation & free college

Cancel all student debt; tuition-free public universities for all
