So, to answer the question of whether or not the student loans are dischargeable, I will simply say "They are not." Although, that is not completely accurate, it answers correctly the 99% of the questions. However, there is that 1% percent of cases, where student loans might become dischargeable and believe me, you do not want to be in that 1%. To discharge student loans in bankruptcy, one has to show that he or she is suffering such great financial hardship, which will not change at any foreseen time.
