[Should interest-based student loan be paid back ?]

Fatawa Question

As-Salamo Alaykum. I live in America and got student loans with interest when attending university here. At that time I did not Know that the interest was Haram. Now I have to pay back the loan with interest. Should I pay it back or not ? If I don't pay back, then I will be in debt.
