Today, I heard on the news that the average debt one is in when they graduate college is $24,000. I've been in college for one year and my debt is already $20,000. And it turns out that my school's accreditation does not exist like I was told. $20,000 in debt and no college credits to show for it. FML

go to a different school asap. it's obvious accreditation means something to you or you wouldn't have mentioned it. Don't pay 20k a year for something that's not going to earn it back for you.

jump ship.
they lied to you. you don't owe them another $60,000.
without accreditation it is pointless.

Agreed. Cut your losses. Also, YDI for going to a "college" you heard of on a TV ad.

I'm seriously confused about the "OMG THIS ECONOMY" posts. Are people fighting to the death over spare change in America or something? Or do people just climax when they see the opportunity to use "Economy" in a sentence?

Anyone who makes a 6 figure salary would be fine with a $20K debt.

if he did, then he is either bad at it, or was too lazy to do proper research.

the accreditation just means that if op decides to transfer to a cheaper school the credits won't transfer... so it's either 20k a year for 3 more years or transfer now and be out 20k

lacking accreditation means his "degree" is basically more useful for wiping his ass than getting a job... *cough ITT *cough*
