A hundred students from Wiley College (Texas) had no idea how much their lives would change when they graduated last Saturday. The school principal told them that an anonymous donor had paid all of their student debts. As we can see in the video below, everyone immediately exploded with joy.
The historically black school said in a statement that it “regularly connects” with donors to help students “so they can start life after college with less debt.”
According to school estimatesthe debts compiled amounted to 300,000 dollars, or 280,000 euros.
In the United States, given the cost of certain establishments, students are regularly forced to take out loans to pay for their studies. These young people then drag out their repayments for years, which greatly complicates their entry into working life.
