  • Thirty percent of federal student loan borrowers say they've gone without food or medicine due to their monthly bills, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau finds.
  • In addition to skipping necessities, 38% of people with federal student loans said they carried credit card debt that they wouldn't have otherwise, the bureau found.
  • Around 44% of borrowers said their education debt delayed when they could by a home, and 26% said the debt pushed back when they'd start a family.
  • "It's clear that many borrowers are struggling with repayment," said CFPB Director Rohit Chopra.
