Why in the world are you able to take 2 online classes at a junior college, get more than enough Pell grant to pay for the classes and your books, and still take out $4700 in student loans per semester. Crazy that people are leaving junior college with $30,000+ in student loan debt. No wonder student loan debt is through the roof in America!!

We'd pay over 4K per month to them. There's no trick or anything, just making a budget and not doing anything except a few well thought out vacations.
Honestly we followed dave Ramsey's approach. Sallie Mae had all the loans rolled into one. We MADE them split them, SM didn't want to do it, and started with the lowest. Paying minimums on all but the smallest. Rolling up the payment each time till we paid one off. Till we were paying 4K to only one and watching that balance DROP.
It was a lot of discipline but now we are free of them.
