[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My parents were legal immigrants here and we had absolutely nothing. I picked the college I wanted, the city I wanted, and when I got in, I went to that college. I worked, I borrowed money under my name, and got grants and scholarships and whatever I could scrape. I had a ton of loans but I’m paying them off.

Your daughter isn’t unhappy that DH isn’t paying for her, deep down she’s unhappy because by your actions and words you are forcing her to pick going to a college she doesn’t want to go. Young people don’t get the impact of loans, but they’re young, let them choose their path and you gave your advice. You should simply say pick the school you want, I’ll contribute what I can, ans the rest will be loans you’ll have to pay. Support her on her decision. Stop focusing on the step family and telling her to go to UMD. She wants a fun college a great name college a place she’s be proud and happy at. Give your advice about loans ans then let her go forth with that decision. [/quote]

Same here. It can be done. If she has the brains to get into a school like this,[b] she will have the brains to pay off the loans[/b]. I had a job through college. Every summer I had two or three. I still graduated first in my class. Sleep is overrated.[/quote]

will OP cosign? Without a cosigned, the interest rates will be crippling [/quote]
