Survey suggests that male college seniors and recent college grads are taking more proactive steps to manage finances compared to female peers MCLEAN, Va., May 18, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Many of the 1.7 million(1) students expected to graduate from college this spring will soon begin repaying student loans, which average close to $23,000 for this year's graduating class, according to a recent study from FinAid.org and Fastweb.com.
