I mean, I also think he could have simply paid the entire expense and had an agreement with me to pay him back X amount within a certain time, rather than an actual loan... but I get it. I had a scholarship but there were other schools that were giving me closer to a full ride that I could have (and likely should have) chosen instead. I was sort of the opposite in that I paid for my books and "living" stuff. I did not work while I was at school but I had worked all through HS and did so during winter and summer breaks so spending money was never an issue... and also why I paid off my student loans within a year of graduating anyway. I know it's a nonsensical jab but the entire college process begins well before adulthood, if you're doing it right. Is a lot of it overkill? absolutely. but I would say as early as sophomore year you had to be aware of GPA, honors classes, clubs, volunteer work, sports and then eventually testing, recommendation letters, the actual applications and essays. I was probably 15/16 when my father discussed with me that i'd have a student loan. I agree that a lot of the value from college is stuff like the bolded, as well as learning to manager your time, budget money, live on your own (our kids all went local to ASU but lived in dorms (two kids, one year) or apartments (the rest of the time, they hated the dorms).
