Hi everyone! I was accepted into Boston University for this coming fall semester and I was very excited until I see the bill... Boston university is my dream school and everything I want it to be with many abroad and internship opportunities. The school has an amazing reputation and my family is so excited for me.
So I come from a low income family and I am a first generation college student, so I am paying for college on my own. Now after seeing my bill and adding up my loans I will have 30k of debt each year... So after three years that adds up to 90k a year not including interest rates. I can't understand why I didn't get more aid since I have such a low efc. I want to vomit everytime I think about this. Yeah I might have a better chance of getting a job after college but my loans are still going to be 1k+ a month. I really need opinions from people who know BU and are in the same boat as me. Apparently I would have gotten more money as a freshman.
