Socal,
Were you a direct admit to Kelley? It's something to consider if it is not a done deal. While an internal transfer in to Kelley takes "only" a 3.0 --not too hard to get if you focus on your books-- you do need to be focused on your books. The girl my son used to go with had planned to transfer in to Kelly but her first semester grades so far don't promise to be pretty and she has already dropped one class. The 3.0 requirement inches up every year, too.
As far as the financials go, check to see what on-campus and off campus jobs pay. After the first semester you could probably work a number of hours. Would it be worth it to you?
And check with the business office to see what kind of summer internships students are able to get after sophomore and junior years, and what they pay and what you need gradewise to get those jobs with the great paychecks.
check online to see what it would cost you to fly to and from Indianapolis.
Then sit down and think things through carefully.
A lot of your reasons for wanting to go there are very good but a lot of your financial future is at stake.
