Are you talking to me? I call it a "mortgage" because you owe about as much as if you had bought a small house (a quick Google search shows tuition at most California film schools runs $30-$70k for a 2 year degree), without actually getting a house. That's the way in which this is like a mortgage. And actually, current interest rates on Stafford loans are 3.4% for undergrads, which is a bit more then the best mortgage rate offers I've seen lately (2.75%).
