Students these days are getting trapped in debt at an alarming rate. There are several factors that lead to this. Few which you have mentioned and some because of not taking the correct decisions when in college. Most of the students are ignorant about the financial aid, scholarships and grants they are eligible for. This is where they should seek assistance of the financial aid advisor at college. One point that you have mentioned is the lack of saving is what majority of students don’t care about. Also, I strongly feel that students should exploit different learning options available these days which allow you to graduate ahead of your schedule and eventually help you save time and money. Accelerated degree programs and online learning are the best examples of this. Students should make the most out of these programs and try to live a debt free life.

I fell into that trap in college. I had massive student loans and racked up a little credit card debt. I wished I knew then how long it would take to pay off. I still have a little in student loans and I graduated over 10 years ago.
