So I got accepted to Carnegie and UF, but I’m conflicted. I got my financial aid package and am expected to pay 20k out of pocket per year, but at UF I’ll basically go for free–Florida resident. I’m okay with getting some debt, but I also plan on going to graduate school after undergrad. As a result, I’m leaning towards going to UF for undergrad and applying to a better school for Grad school. However, I do like the idea of moving far away from home and attending a better undergrad, but I think in the long run it’ll be worth it to go to grad school debt free, as employers will look at my master’s degree anyways. I’m majoring in mechanical engineering and wanted to see what others think and any advice they’d like to give me. Thank you!
