<p>I'm just curious on how much you think you will owe.</p>
<p>My dad recently passed away and left me enough for 4 years of in-state college, so I have that covered. However, for grad school - I am completely screwed. I was thinking about going to medical school, too, which will really be killer.</p>
<p>What are your plans for covering the cost? Do you think it's worth it to pay more money (a lot more money) to eventually get a higher salary, even if it means being in debt until your later years?</p>
<p>And on another note.. I hate to say it, but this is probably why I will only have one kid! I would much rather pay for his or her school entirely.</p>
<p>I will not owe any money at all and maybe even make money while in college.</p>
<p>Sorry to hear about your dad but yes I will owe a lot when I graduate. Would be around $120k.</p>
<p>I won’t owe a cent when I finish law school.</p>
<p>I am lucky enough to not have to worry about debt for undergrad.</p>
<p>Bless you and your family. I’m sorry for your loss.</p>
<p>If I am not mistaken, the majority of medical students take out loans to fund their professional education. I have never heard any personal stories of parents paying for their adult child’s medical/business/other professional education. Depending on your specialty, you should be able to repay those loans. Although there are many uncertain variables in the post-ObamaCare world. I would recommend heading over to the medical school forum here at CC.</p>
<p>Full ride, so nothing for undergraduate. I’ll probably make money off of undergrad actually.</p>
<p>Depending on where I go after that, law school could cost a lot. We’ll see.</p>
<p>Parents paying for college+law school FTW</p>
<p>Including living expenses, my parents paid about $20,000 for my bachelor’s degree, which is more or less one year of my mom’s salary after tax. I’ve been admitted to a PhD program that is fully funded provided I maintain good academic standing. I figure that I can actually pay my parents back with decent interest half a decade from now.</p>
<p>I’ll owe about $5000 for my one year at Alabama and about $1,000, if that, from the rest of my years at UT-Chattanooga.</p>
<p>You could always apply to the Uniformed Services Uni of Health Sciences. I’m pretty sure it’s “free” tuition (“free” because then you have to serve in the military, which obviously ain’t for everyone).</p>
<p>I will be about 30k in debt after undergrad. UChicago c/o 2014.
I was gonna work for a year, then go to business school to get an MBA, then finally pursue a Ph.D.</p>
<p>My dad transferred his benefits to me from the Post-9/11 GI Bill, so I’m practically going to have no debt after Stanford. I’ll probably go to business school later in life, but by then I would’ve had a job so I can pay for it myself.</p>
<p>Military is the way to go. The DMVA is paying for almost all of mine because I’m a veteran and then the ARNG is paying for the rest and then some.</p>
<p>As far as the military isn’t for everyone there’s so many jobs to choose from I find it hard to believe you can’t find something you don’t like.</p>
<p>i will probably attend a private college for undergrad and grad and graduate with $0.00 debt. You’ve got to love trust funds :)</p>
<p>Cabhax I meant the environment of the military, or even medical qualifications. Believe me I’d love to serve but because I have depression, I can’t.</p>
<p>my school is about 16 thousand a year, sooooo i doubt i will be graduating with debt 
i’m so relieved but my parents aren’t paying for grad school- i’m hoping i can kick ass in school so maybe they can :D</p>
<p>One thing about the military-free tuition doesn’t count for **** if you’re dead. Think about that.</p>
<p>Wow… Either I’m really poor or CC is full of rich kids. I’ll be $40-100k in debt after undergrad. Hoping more towards the 40 end…</p>
