This is a fact sensitive issue, meaning that a lot could depend on all of the underlying facts, agreements, and potential of comingling of assets.
In general, assuming none of the above applies, the student loan debt will follow the student. But, that is “in general”. You really need to discuss this issue with your divorce attorney. If you do not have one, you should find an experienced family law attorney to assist you.
I may be able to help.
