It is more than just possible to graduate debt free depending on a few variables. Obviously, the biggest one is cost. Using myself as an example, I commute from home on a daily basis. I've forgotten what the math worked out to be, but I pay approximately between $340-$380 for transportation on a monthly basis. I also pay for my own education, and I work on co-op terms during the summer, and I now work part time during school. I have no debt to repay from my last two years, nor will I from this year or my last year.
I guess what I'm trying to get at, it really depends on your situation. You cannot just outright say that it is 100% impossible to graduate debt free.
