It’s a specialty private school, and they accept little, so I’m honored just to be accepted.

I have many friends in UC Berkley who paid for their 30k tuitions by continuously sending in scholarships. I have many friends who have taken on huge loans etc.

Many people in my school are planning to doing this too. I do not know a single soul who is able to fully pay for their tuition in a UC, Cal State, or Private.

All schools are clearly unaffordable for most with tuition raking up to 30-50k a year.

I checked the list and this school is not under Cal Grants.

Please listen and evaluate your logic. You are making sweeping statements that are exaggerations or missing the point. We are trying to help though I expect most will check out soon.

1. We know they aren't on Cal Grants. You need to pick a school that is.

2. "Many people in my school" That's a small sample size and you don't really know what others' finances are.

3. "All schools are clearly unaffordable for most with tuition . . . 30-50k/year." That's at private schoools, not in-state public. You are fortunate to be in one of the states with both good public aid for your parents' income bracket and high quality education. Many from states with high cost public schools like Illinois would love your position.
