At what point does amount of debt overweigh benefits?

<p>Are you saying that both schools already include $5500 in student loans in your FA package and for you to go to SU, you would have to borrow another $6k?</p>

<p>If so, you’d be borrowing over $10k per year. That’s a bit much. You could do a Sallie Mae loan for the rest, but either way, you’re going to need co-signers for that extra debt. Will your parents do that? </p>

<p>Since you’re bio-engineering…does that mean that you’re pre-med? if so, that’s wayyy too much debt. What are your career plans?</p>
