<p>Haha. Yeah. UNC CH would leave me with $8,000 in loans after 4 years.
Which seems somewhat rediculous; a huge public school has managed to meet almost all of the cost with only $2k a year, whereas Wake, a small private school has given me the equivilant (sp…) of Carolina’s 1 year CoA in loans alone…they both gave me 2k in work study.
I know I’m being stupid, but it’s for Wake! I’m just trying to fill in all the corners before I fully resign myself to Tarheeldom. Not that it’s a bad school, or anything. I just made the mistake of picking a favorite before I heard back from the money people. And I wouldn’t be asking, except I’m trying to stabilize the emotional swings I’ve been going through. My mom is anti Wake because of the costs, so I go through the day thinking Tarheel thoughts, and then I get home and my dad is still considering it as a possibility and working out ways to lessen the load.
Which brings me to my original purpose in posting: Is there any way to not spend more than the $45k in absolute fees?</p>
