Facing student loans as a teacher

I am graduating from college in May with an elementary education degree.  I fell in love with the university as a freshman, expecting to get more scholarships than I did.  Now I owe over $90,000 in student loans.  I am starting to really get worried about life after college, as I am looking for housing now.  After finding out the size of my student loan payments, even after consolidation, I cannot afford housing that is in good condition or in a safe area.  Even making a rent payment of only $300 will allow for little else as far as bill payment when I am making the salary of a teacher.  Any advice or assistance you could give me would be more than appreciated.
