<p>$132,000 of debt is not a good idea.

<p>Biomedical engineers do not generally make $80,000 per year at graduation with a bachelor’s degree, and $132,000 of debt would be a very heavy load even if he managed to get such a job.</p>
<p>While Drexel emphasizes the co-ops, engineering majors at other schools can do co-ops. Of course, co-ops and internships for engineering majors should be paid.</p>
<p>Would it be correct to assume that his reason for going to Drexel is more of the “college experience”, as opposed to the “commute to [what resembles] a community college for two years, then transfer to the university” experience?</p>
