Longer explanation: bad faith chapter 7 filings get dismissed rather than debts discharged. An eve-of-bankruptcy-purchase-of-education-at-huge-tuition-cost, as well as room and board and living expenses, with the obvious plan to declare bankruptcy upon graduation, would result in a bad faith dismissal virtually every single time. It's like a picture perfect abusive BK filing that any trustee would challenge. Can you imagine the debtor interview?
My point about the looking for a job thing is not that it's a BK requirement, but instead that a brand new college grad who never even bothered who snap-filed for BK would be providing
obvious evidence of abuse, because he or she would be immediately proving they made no effort to pursue the one purpose of the extravagant cost they are now seeking to discharge.
