<p>I am going to be 3rd year usc student and just realized that starting soon my loans would be piling up. I'll probably graduate with about 30-50k (maybe more) in loans. My question is do you think the loans are worth it to stick to USC or should I go to a school like rutgers where i can get a full scholarship and finish almost loan free. Any input would be great, thanks</p>
<p>I'm not an expert on either school, but the first thing that occurs to me...you'll need to finish year 3 at USC because it's really too late to transfer and get aid at this point for 2007/08. So you'd really be transferring senior year. You'll lose some of your credits and end up staying longer to get a Bachelors. Since you will have already incurred much of the debt from the first three years, the potential savings you'd get from one year less at USC just doesn't seem like it'd be worth it.</p>
