Student debt continues to decline for SDSU grads

As a writer for a news site, I came across an article titled “Student debt continues to decline for SDSU grads” that immediately caught my attention. It seems that students who graduate from San Diego State University (SDSU) now owe less than ever before, with the average amount of student debt decreasing year after year.

According to the article, SDSU students who graduated in 2020 owed an average of $20,058 in student loans, which is down from $22,345 in 2019. This marks the third consecutive year of decreasing student debt at the university. The article goes on to credit the decrease in debt to the university’s commitment to reducing costs and increasing scholarships and grants.

As someone who has personally experienced the burden of student debt, it’s refreshing to see a university take proactive steps to alleviate this issue for their graduates. I believe that this trend is crucial as student debt is a leading cause of financial stress and can dramatically impact a person’s quality of life.

Overall, the article highlights the importance of universities taking action to decrease student debt and provide more affordable higher education. It shows that even small steps towards this goal can make a difference and ultimately help students succeed both academically and financially.
