<p>I got accepted to Parsons The New School for Design in New York. My dream school. I made my deposit, so now I have my seat reserved. I'm in. But there's one problem: my Financial Aid.</p>
<p>My estimated cost of attendance is aprox. $53,000.
The aid I got: $22,160.</p>
<p>I got a lot of money, but clearly not enough. I feel so bad because this is the only school that accepted me and the only one that I really want to go to. What should I do? I mean, I know it's a stupid question but that's what makes me so furious. The place where I come from doesn't give me orientation to go to college outside of the country - well, at least the school I go to - so I'm really confused in terms of loans and things I need to do in order to get all of that money. It makes me sick because I know I could have been more prepared for this stuff, like applying for good scholarships if only I would have had some good orientation & help.</p>
<p>It's already been hard for me so don't make it worse.</p>
<p>I have applied to other scholarships and I'm still filling them out just in case, but nothing can guarantee that I win 'em.</p>
<p>Can someone here answer me with real answers? What would you do? Are there actually loans for that amount of money that I need to pay?</p>
