<p>kate2011 - it would depend on the debt. If your total debt was only going to be $25,000, then I would attend UVA no question if that were my first choice and I LOVED it. $25K is manageable for the vast majority of college grads. If you plan on law school it’s more of a shaky proposition - most lawyers don’t make the Big Law salaries everyone reads about. But still, I might take it anyway if there were really a big interest difference between the two.</p>
