I am a high school senior from New York and I was accepted at UNC, along with many other schools.

I think that I want to go there, but I am a little bit unsure. It will cost me $30,000 a year and I will have to take out student loans to pay for it. But at Elon, I was accepted into the honors program and it will cost me $20,000 a year.

I don't know what to do. I love UNC because it is an amazing school with a big sports program. But, at Elon, I am in the honors program and it is cheaper for me.

I am trying to look at the big picture, thinking that it would be easier to get into grad school coming from UNC, but on the other hand, I don't want to be paying the bills for the rest of my life. I feel like my gut is telling me to go to UNC, but I just don't know what to do.

I also have a full ride at a school in New York (Hofstra), which I really don't want to take.

Any advice???
