What is the interests rate for typical non subsidized student loans?
I had scholarships and federal grants too.
I think it’s 5% now. It’s gonna be different by the time your kids go to college.
So it’s about the same as mortgage rate.
From 5.05 to 7.6% for federal loans:

Private is 4 to 13%

I have seen the unsubsidized rate usually float a couple of hundred basis points over prime mortgage. The trick is to get a federal loan while you are a student (doesn’t accrue interest while you are in school) and immediately pay it off or refinance to a lower rate loan of some sort once you graduate

I think it’s better for the kids to get a loan so she knows the true costs of things. Even if the parents choose to pay it all off after graduation.
