Stonehill or Loyola Maryland

My son is struggling between Stonehill college or Loyola Maryland. Stonehill gave him a good amount of Merit money and Loyola did not. Loyola is pretty costly without merit money, but he really liked Loyola. Does anyone have a student at either school? Any thoughts? Thanks!

I don’t have kids at either school, but maybe we all can help you come to the right conclusion…

What is his major and career goal?

Can you easily afford Loyola Maryland without much/any loans?

If you would have to borrow for Loyola, how much each year?

How much will your child have to borrow each year for year school?

Did you give your son a budget as to how much you would spend each year?

How much would each school cost?

What does he like about Loyola?

What does he like about Stonehill?

What does he dislike about each school?

do you have other kids to put thru college
