Finishing school and trying to jump start your career while navigating student loan debt can be overwhelming to say the least. It’s important to understand your options as you try to find debt solutions that are manageable for your financial situation.

For example, many new graduates aren’t aware that student loan debts could be restructured through a proposal filed to creditors, allowing for more room in the budget to pay off student loan debt. In a recent Toronto Metro article titled “Can you get rid of student loans by declaring bankruptcy?” Donna Carson with MNP LTD provides insight on the topic.

The article was originally posted online at Toronto Metro on Saturday, August 29, 2015.
