<p>JHU is worth the price difference in my opinion</p>
<p>Update! UMD finally replied sayin they’d give me 14.5k in aid (including loads). Up front it’s 9k but again, quite a few loans so it ends up being 15k a year.</p>
<p>Who would be responsible to pay back your loans? How much would you be borrowing each year total? </p>
<p>It sounds like you’d borrow $60k total for UMD. that’s too much.</p>
<p>What is your financial safety school?</p>
<p>It seems like some people gave advice thinking that your mom would pay back most of the loans. Is that true? If not, then you’re borrowing too much.</p>
