Three friends share their very different student debt stories
Original: Three friends on their student debt: one paid off, one chipping away and one creeping up https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/arti
A BBC feature follows three friends comparing their student loan situations years after graduating: one has fully paid off their debt, another is steadily chipping away at repayments, while the third sees their balance still creeping upward despite payments. The piece highlights how widely outcomes can vary depending on earnings, loan size and repayment terms, a comparison many graduates recognise from their own finances.
Why now: Student debt repayment is a persistent concern for graduates, and relatable personal comparisons draw attention.
