Student Debt Burden After Graduation - Visual Representation #3534610 (License: Personal Use)

The illustration depicts a young graduate in traditional academic regalia-black gown, mortarboard with tassel-straining as they walk forward while tethered by a chain to a large burlap sack marked with the British pound (£) symbol, surrounded by scattered gold coins. Their distressed expression and posture convey the emotional and financial strain of post-graduation debt obligations. The transparent background allows flexible use across digital platforms.
