Poll: Majority says student loans are too risky
A majority of American voters consider student loan debt too risky due to difficulties in finding well-paying jobs after graduation.
About 35% of respondents believe a college degree justifies student loan debt as it may improve long-term career and income prospects.
Among bachelor's degree holders, opinions are split, with some viewing student loan debt as too risky and others seeing it as worthwhile depending on factors such as major and work experience.
The value of a college degree varies by major, and many graduates face challenges in the job market despite their education.
Thirty-five per cent claim that it is still worth borrowing to earn a university degree, as it can improve career prospects and long-term income opportunities.
