An article that appears in the July 2007 edition of Kiplinger's Personal Finance magazine provides information for families regarding what to consider when determining whether to borrow money to help finance a student's college education. For those who do borrow, guidelines are suggested to help decide how much is a reasonable amount, based on factors such as the parents' current savings and the student's future earnings potential. According to results of a survey conducted by a wealth-management company, many parents allocate less money for their child's college education than they do for vacations or eating at restaurants.
The article is available at the Kiplinger Web site.
