To help college students shirk from this certain burden, President Obama state his State of the Union Address publicly last Tuesday night that brought attention to many students especially in higher education in regards to student loan issue and the cost of college education.
“When kids do graduate, the most daunting challenge can be the cost of college,” said by the United States of America’s President during his State of the Union address, “At a time when Americans owe more in tuition debt than credit card debt; this Congress needs to stop the interest rates on student loans from doubling in July.” He added.

Higher education can’t be a luxury; it is an economic imperative that every family in America should be able to afford.”
