I have yet to find a financial advisor who will say otherwise - kids have their entire lives to pay off a loan, but we only have a few years left to prep for retirement. However, WPI is $65k+ per year, and both my kids are there at the same time, so we are doing what we can to help within reason. At least with one doing Electrical, Computer, and RF Engineering, and the other doing Aerospace Engineering (minor in Astrophysics) they should both be able to land careers which enable them to pay off their loans early (even with each of them near $100K in loans).
