A public interest group says as many as 900 colleges are pushing students into using payment cards that carry hefty costs, sometimes even to access students’ financial aid money.

IMHO a small issue compaired to the big student loans they allow students to attend their school with.

 

LOL I wonder if they would allow students to transfer their stduent to loans to one of those cards with the same interest rates and term.  Fair is fair.
