My SO is a physician assistant, which requires a graduate degree. The tuition alone at almost all of the PA programs is >100K and acceptance rates are low (<20%) so most people don't really get to choose where they go. Most of her class graduated with 150-250K in debt with 5-8% interest, they're a year into working at understaffed hospitals and are already burning out. Quitting and getting a different job is not an option because nothing else will pay them anywhere near enough to cover the $1800-2500/month tuition payments. |
