You cannot claim bankruptcy and erase your school debt. However, you could transfer your school balances to a credit card and claim bankruptcy, so I guess there is always a loophole.<br /><br />It is called defaulting on your loan and interest and penalties continue to accrue, so it is never wise to think your school debt is going to go away this way. <br /><br />In addition to what you mentioned, there is a National Guard Tuition Reimbursement Program with lots of small print to qualify...ask your recruiter to see if you qualify. After all is said and done, the Montgomery GI Bill and US military will have paid for $90k of my school debt, and yet my balance will still be over $100k. Yikes!<br />The National Guard had for years, a SLRP - Student Loan Reimbursement Program. I got in when the money was there. $50k over 6 years to be paid back, but it is now pre-taxed. It went from $7500 to $4950 after tax.Response by SSG(P) Private RallyPoint Member made Dec 1 at 2014 8:13 PM2014-12-01T20:13:29-05:002014-12-01T20:13:29-05:00TSgt Joshua Copeland365500<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Awesome info!Response by TSgt Joshua Copeland made Dec 11 at 2014 7:09 AM2014-12-11T07:09:35-05:002014-12-11T07:09:35-05:00SFC Mark Merino496093<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>3 months later, I just got the email from Navient (formerly Sallie Mae), that my outstanding student loans have been forgiven.
