Cost of Undergrad will probably cost $160,000... Advice please...

<p>What schools of the ones I have been applying to are you referring to?</p>

<p>Because for the state schools, that’s where I don’t know what’s going to happen.</p>

<p>But with the reaches, I figured I might get a loan for the other 10k-15k, get a small job on the side (i.e. babysitting)… I really don’t know specifically at the moment. But I know it will be much better than if I attend my state schools.</p>

<p>Yeah… that’s where the problem lies. The schools that meet need for int’ls are mostly need-aware and very selective, so they are EXTREMELY iffy. And I think as of right now, I am in a situation between your two given financial scenarios. But after a year, a lot can happen…</p>

<p>Yeah, I got into Pitt (one of the schools that I was referring to the 160,000 dollar debt), Penn (likely rejection), and UChicago (I chose not to apply in the end, because it was too far and b/c of the grade deflation). But I can go around the New England area, with the boundaries probably not outside Ohio or Mason Dixie Line… But those are just estimates.</p>
