@ItsJustSchool At MiraCosta, my net price is 21K. So, with the Pell Grant, that’d be 16K. That is pretty high for a CC, but not terrible. I didn’t think I had the test scores for a low tuition at a private school, but I’m checking them out now. Cal Lutheran: 39K before loans, 12K after. At Soka, I’d be eligible for free tuition! Unfortunately, they don’t have my major, but they’ll add more as more students attend. For Questbridge, I’d need better scores. Still, thanks so much!
@aunt bea I think I’d be happier in a city, although I don’t have to be right next to the beach. I don’t think I could deal with 120 in summer, either! Would UC Merced be a good match?
