70k loans for undergrad?

<p>That’s alot of money and not feasible for any student, ESPECIALLY if you are going for a master’s degree. Do some research and you will find that you are only allowed to take out approximately 5k in federal loans a year anyway. And whatever you do DO NOT take out private loans. They can force you to default and go into bankruptcy. I understand your situation, but is going to an OOS state school for the excitement worth the risk of your financial future? This is not even taking into account room and board and interest, which amounts to alot more over time.</p>

<p>If you do plan to go out of state, look for places where you can get significant merit scholarships, not a school that makes you take out 70k in loans without even considering r&b. Go to the stickied threads on the financial aid and scholarships forum and start your search there.</p>
