You need to forget about what other people are doing. The bottom line is that this school is unaffordable for you and your family. Try to get back any portion of your deposits that are refundable and move on to something that you can afford. Do you have acceptances to any schools that you could afford? By “afford,” I don’t mean that you can pay cash up front - most people can’t do that - but a school for which you can pay through a combination of grants, scholarships, student loans ($5500 for freshman year), work study, a summer job and any other funds you have. It might have to be a community college or a state college to which you can commute.
