<p>If you were making 70k and got accepted to UCLA as a transfer student, would you defer enrollment for a year in order to save up $30,000 for school? I'm a paralegal planning on law school but I would like to save money before I take 5 years off from working full-time. Jobs are hard to come by in this economy so I would like to keep my cushy job for another year. I also have friends that are more than 200k in debt because they didn't plan accordingly.</p>
<p>Hell yea if they let me defer enrollment for a year. Some UCs dont let you. I dont think SD does, but LA may.</p>
<p>Are you sure that UCLA will allow you to defer enrollment?</p>
<p>If I were in your shoes I would wait and save up as much money as I could to avoid student loans.</p>
<p>Although with the UC’s you won’t get into $200K debt. If you plan to spend 2 years at UCLA you would probably rack up about 50K debt.</p>
