Worked my way through undergraduate studies (Economics), borrowed $5K for graduate school (Economics) and worked my way through law school (worked full time in financial analytics, took courses part-time, employer paid my tuition and expenses.) I paid the $5k back within 3 years after graduation from law school. Do I get a responsibility rebate?
It sounds like you went to school in the 1970’s.
Things are different now, school inflation makes it much more difficult on young people than in the past.
That said, if you borrowed the money you are obligated to pay it back, not other people.
