<p>Do you have an in-state college option you can take? Other than “outside” scholarships or those given to the top students, it looks like the most you can get from MSU is $6K per year for an OOS scholarship. That’s still leaves too much to take on in loans, if you don’t have significant support from your parents, IMO. My son was accepted to MSU engineering, but will probably stay in-state, due to the huge cost difference.</p>
