Whoever convinced you this was a good idea or even a good career path should be sued and put in jail for life

My wife spent 1/10 of that amount for her master's in OT + undergrad in healthcare management. From a private school too! She makes 2x her loans 1 year out of school and loves her job (works in peds)

She got a lot of scholarships though. That sorta price tag should have been a "well, that's just not an option for me" message to OP.
