CC is my first choice, but financial aid stuff might cause me to choose Northwestern (90% discount, and I want to go into journalism…). CC gave me the $5K a year Presidential Scholarship but I also would have $5500 a year in loans. This comes on the same day we receive news we’ve lost hundreds of thousands of dollars in the recent financial collapse. Hopefully everything works out…regardless, I’m just so happy to know for sure I could end up at CC next year.</p>
