How do "normal" people get through NYU, financially?

Put it this way. For my freshman year alone, I have to take out around $56k in one of my private loans. After the 15 year repayment, assuming I pay the exact amount every month, I’ll have paid over $150k just on this loan!

I’m going to try to get through this. I’m hoping it puts me in a good job so repayment is manageable.
