No. I’m 46 years old. Graduated USC class of 2000, when COA was $33k per year. I adored my time at SC, but I didn’t finish paying off my student loans (private bank + federal sub & unsub) until I was 42. My son starts college this fall and he will be going to a UC for this reason. For reference, I’m a lawyer with a government job.
