[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We have chosen a larger state university for our son because the private LAC with the more impressive name is $80/k a year with only a 10k merit scholarship. It's simply not worth the loans or financial anguish. We can afford the larger state university without him taking out loans. He got a larger merit scholarship there as well. [b]We phrased it that it's an accomplishment to be accepted but no one asks where you went to college by the time you are 30, but school loans follow you forever. [[/b]/quote] 100% correct regarding "financial anguish" and that "school loans follow you forever."[/quote] +1 Yes, this is certainly a good way to think about loans. Particularly if child is interested in the liberal arts and not STEM or business school, as mine is..[/quote]
