<p>Yeah, I am taking that into consideration as well. At Berkeley I’d probably be able to find somewhere to fit in easily.</p>
<p>One issue with all these privates is that my parents have been set on sending me to public school because we can’t afford 50k a year. Thing is, my dad’s a family doctor so we’re not rich enough to afford a private, but not poor enough to receive significant financial aid. How is the aid at these schools? Is there a way to pay for them besides loans?</p>
