Year: 2024
Type: article
Study design: Observational Study
Abstract: To find practical ways to reduce long-term debt and improve financial stability, this study examines financial planning techniques used by students and recent graduates who are managing student loans. This study gathers information on loan amounts, repayment schedules, money management techniques, and the perceived influence of student loans on future financial objectives through a mixed-methods survey that is dispersed throughout different educational levels and institution types. While qualitative responses reveal a variety of debt management techniques, quantitative analysis offers information into typical loan amounts and repayment expectations. In order to lessen the burden of student loans, the results highlight the necessity of individualized financial counselling, easily available debt management tools, and policy assistance. This study provides useful advice for students who want to prevent debt accumulation and actively manage loan repayment, fostering long-term financial resilience.
