Paying for College

<p>Bentley or Rutgers </p>

<hr>

<p>This is my situation: I am from South America, but I have been living in NJ for the last 4 years, I have not family in the U.S, so I have not problem with moving out of NJ or staying. I am transfering from a CC to a 4 year school. I have not money for college, and my family is not able to help me on that, and this is what Rutgers and BEntley offer me.</p>

<p>Rutgers: Work & loans ;(
Bentley a grant for 32.701 plus loans (9500)</p>

<p>Rutgers AWARDS
Year
FEDERAL WORK STUDY PROGRAM $2,000
NEW JERSEY CLASS LOAN ** $12,100
FEDERAL DIRECT LOAN-SUBSIDIZED $4,500
FEDERAL DIRECT LOAN-UNSUBSIDIZED $6,000 </p>

<p>Total $24,600 so (22600 are loans)</p>

<p>Bentley AWARDS:
Grant for $33.000 plus loans ($9500). I will need to get $5500 more for 48k. </p>

<p>SO: <em>Rutgers $22600 (loans) vs $15000 (loans)</em></p>

<p>Any advice???</p>

<p>This is for two years, right? So we’re talking $30K vs $45K in loans? That’s a lot in loans coming out. Any chance that you could apply to additional schools that might do a better job at keeping your loans down?</p>
