Is it 15860 per semester or per year? I know CMU is notorious for lackluster financial aid. Maybe you can appeal? That would be an insane amount of loans to pay back if you’re including the 19k you’d have to take extra in loans.

Tell them your situation and ask for more aid. Or if you got into a comparable/peer school, and they gave you more aid, ask them if they can match it.
