is it true that if you become a university or state university professor, you get student loans paid off?
I can't remember where I heard this, but for California State UNiversity Professor, can you get student loan reinbursement or can they erase some of your student loan debt? Thank you!
Not in general. Sometimes you can get reductions at some teaching institutions in high-need areas such as nursing, but not overall. There are other areas where you can get student loan reduction, such as teaching or working in a rural or high-need area (like reservations), and going into the Peace Corps or AmeriCorps. It also depends on what kind of debt you have (public or priivate).

I've never heard that. Since professors make pretty good money, you can pay it off yourself. Also, they don't need to recruit university professors - there are plenty of people who want the job. However, there ARE some programs that will pay off part of your loan if you teach public high school in high-risk areas.
