<p>Many people fall into this problem, and the bigger issue is whether tuition at 50K+ is worth incurring debt,eating ramen noodles,and getting rid of cable…(joking a bit)…This is not a 'Nova problem,it is a problem across the spectrum of all colleges…What is the ROI of the tuition? How much does a degree from very good institutions differ from good institutions?
Is 'Nova at 52k as good as U Penn at the same tuition? Is U Pitt at 28K a better value then 'Nova?..I love 'Nova,but thinking of paying that much sends chills down my spine…My D was deferred,so it isn’t a concern as much as those who have been accepted and are trying to figure out how to pay for it…</p>
