I guess that everyone has to get motivation from somewhere. I can imagine that it would give an accomplished feeling to know that you had what it takes to go to higher-end schools.</p>

The fear of loans and debt is one of the reasons that I don’t think I’ll go to a top tier school. My mom said that if I got into a school like Stanford or Harvard (unlikely), she’d do whatever it took for me to be able to attend. But I would feel really uncomfortable with that, and frankly, I don’t think it’s worth it.</p>
