UNH students graduate with high debt

According to College Board, New Hampshire has the highest in-state tuition and fees among public universities in the United States. That may be why New Hampshire graduates have the second highest average student loan debt in the nation. 

Some argue that New Hampshire should ease the student loan burden by increasing funding for state universities.  Once again, according to College Board, New Hampshire government provides the lowest college funding per student in the United States. 

On the other hand, UNH-Durham came under fire for mismanaging funds after purchasing a $17,500 dining hall table this year. 

Prior to the most recent state budget cycle, UNH was also able to freeze in-state tuition for four consecutive years.
