<prompt> Human: Knowing what I do about my profession, I will likely be earning 35-41k per year ifwhen I find a teaching job. Im just looking for any advice at all on how to handle this much debt when I come out. I figure Id want to find cheap housingrent wherever I end up working, and live frugally until the debt is paid off. But I dont know how long that could take or what options I have. Any advice would be appreciated. Thank you.Edit: To be clear, this is a 4-year bachelors degree. I mean that I am a sophomore and two years from now Ill be coming out with 100k.Edit2: These are PARENT PLUS LOANS, not DIRECT LOANS. Also, rip inboxAssistant: Did you have any guidance at all in these decisions? did anyone talk through the implications of spending that kind of money on a music degree with you? If so, make absolutely sure to never ever take any more advice from that person. omg!Human: It was actually my parents. And they now want me to join the national guard to cover the debt, which Im actually considering they have a band MOS which I can do  <response>: Based on the National Guard website, I cannot say with certainty whether or not the National Guard Student Loan REpayment Program would be applicable to this situation.In any case, do not make any hasty decisions about this without understanding in full what it means, as you have now learned somewhat about your current loan situation.
