[quote=Anonymous]I'm torn on this one. On one hand, I feel as though I got so much out of the experience of living on campus as a freshman and sophomore, and studying abroad for Jr. year. Neither would have been possible if I'd gone the CC route. On the other hand, I see so many adults who are crushed by their student loan debt. I think that if my child had the opportunity you describe, I'd want them to go ahead through the application process and see what kind of merit aid and need based aid they get at other schools. If they got into a 4 year residential program that they liked and I could make it happen for them without debt, I'd encourage that path. On the other hand, if the choice ended up being UMDCP with significant debt upon graduation or MC to UMDCP with no debt, I'd choose the latter.[/quote]
