Ctr. On Education & Workforce at Georgetown University
“A two-year degree or less can actually place a student in a better position for employment and potential earnings.
In 38 of Indiana’s 92 counties, those with a recent associate degree earn more than those with a recent bachelor’s degree.” Dr. Mary Ostrye, senior vice president and provost, Ivy Tech Community College

Student loan debt in Indiana
College loan debt is a growing crisis with direct consequences to Indiana's economic
health. Graduates burdened with suffocating loan payments have less disposable income, and high school
students ill-informed in the college planning process often unknowingly marry their
future to debt.
