<p>Hello all,</p>
<p>I'll be transferring this fall from a private college to a state school. For the private school, my parents would have been paying about 15, 700 and I would have gotten about 5,000 in loans and 1000 in work study as part of my financial aid.</p>
<p>The state school costs about 16,000 for tutition and room and board, but I also have to add other things like books and other expenses. No financial aid.</p>
<p>I'll be working during the school year, so that will bring the cost down. But I also would like to take out a private loan to help my parents out. I was thinking 5,000, since that would have been what I would have had at my other college.</p>
<p>Opinions?</p>
