<p>Much as I like CMU unfortunately they don’t have the endowment to give the aid other colleges do. I do think this is a lot of money to owe. Two years ago the salary comparison with RPI and WPI was about $20,000 a year in CMU’s favor. However that’s probably because a number of CMU grads were going to Wall Street. I don’t know that you’d find the same difference in the next few years.</p>
