Tuition, Debt Increase at Technical Colleges in Wisconsin

Quoted: “Research shows a lot of community college students who don’t repay loans only enrolled in about a semester of courses,” said Nicholas Hillman, a University of Wisconsin-Madison associate professor who studies student loan debt. “Dropping out with no degree and debt is a problem. The typology of the student borrowing a whole lot ? say to go to medical school – is not as big of a policy problem as the students who are borrowing because they have no other options. I worry about the small borrowers.”
