  • The general public is split on what will happen next: 29% say student loan payments will resume on May 1st, 26% say student loan repayment will be paused again, 28% say some individuals’ student loans will be forgiven, and 14% say all student loans will be forgiven.

  • 4 in 10 (40%) of debtors who say their quality of life remained the same during the student loan pause continued to pay their student loans, either monthly or less frequently. 

Rather than avocado toast, those who did not pay their student loans during the pause used the money towards everyday expenses (48%), paid off other debts (35%), or saved it (14%). 

  • Women, millennials, and those who make less than $50,000 were more likely to use the money they saved on everyday expenses. 
  • Those with higher incomes used the money they saved to pay off other debts.

Instead of increasing spending (18%), the large majority of debtors either decreased their spending (14%) or did not change their spending habits (66%).
