<p>I have been accepted by Northern Kentucky University. As of now, NKU has given me a $5,000 scholarship. I will not be notified on how much more I will get until April. Attending NKU costs around $13,000. A couple of weeks I applied to Xavier University (Cincinnati, OH), not thinking that I receive much money. To my suprise, Xavier gave me $20,000. Also within the next week or so, Xavier will tell me how much more aid I will receive from them. The cost to attend Xavier is about $32,000. Right now I'm really confused on what I should do. Should I attend NKU or Xavier? Your opinion will be greatly appreciated.</p>
<p>What do you intend to major in? Instead of looking at the aid your are getting, focus on the NET COST after the aid. Include any forecast you have of room and board in addition to the tuition (since you may live at home).</p>
