umd seems like a great fit for me.
out of state student.</p>

<p>is it worth it to wait for the appeal?
is it worth the debt to go to umd?

<p>NEU is about 48k/year. Leaving you with 14k out of pocket. If you are in state and getting 11k, OOP is going to be about the same and there are other factors to consider. Location, feel, program quality, NEU is a co-op school, UMD big D1 sports, etc. these are also factors if you are out of state which would leave you about 20-25k short. That is a big nut to cover.</p>
