Paying veterinary school debt is a major concern for many recent graduates as they enter practice and are expected to take a portion of their income, sometimes a significant amount, to pay back the lender. I am here to share how I paid off my student debt of $184,000 in less than six years. This journey was not free of struggles and setbacks, but I can attest that it is possible to pay off your student debt if you set and commit to realistic goals. It is a rewarding feeling to be free of that heavy cloud of debt looming overhead. Here I will describe how I earned that feeling of being debt-free and the available repayment plans for you to conquer your debt as well.
