Impressive you got to negotiate your monthly loan down by $500/month! Does that mean you also owe 30% less ($35K or so)? Great SAT and GPA! Why not apply to the elite public schools like Berkeley, UVA, William & Mary, Michigan, which may be more expensive for out of staters, but still cheaper than private schools? I guess Jersey only has Rutgers right? Miami has got a good football school! And, you must have had a great lifestyle as a super senior! I'm envious! :) Great story Michael!

Although I still wonder what the private college experience would have been like, I am grateful that my loans are manageable. The student loan advisor at FinAid.org is a good tool for calculating the maximum amount you should borrow, based on your major.
