My Mom is Forcing Me to Attend a College that I Strongly Dislike

[b_r_um]

MSSU’s tuition is $6000 per year. I would live at home. Mizzou’s total cost per year is $18000. I’m planning to work during the summer and have a job on campus. She says that she can’t go into debt and I don’t want her to, but I can only take out $5500 per year.

Sounds as if money is the main reason why your parents want you to attend MSSU. How would you pay for Mizzou if your parents can’t support you beyond the $6,000 they’d pay for MSSU? If you could formulate a reasonable plan to finance the difference, would your parents reconsider their position?</p>

MSSU has nothing that I want to major in

What do you want to study? In another recent thread you were considering a double major in finance and journalism at Mizzou. MSSU has a finance program as well, as well as several communications-related degrees.</p>
