Cardozo 18,000k/yr or Brooklyn 20,000/yr Forum

[mmhmmjc]

I am leaning towards Cardozo due to its better ranking. Is there anything that should keep me from choosing Cardozo over Brooklyn?

[mmhmmjc]

no stips for both

They're functionally equivalent with a slight edge to Dozo
Have fun

Those schools are so overpriced that merely getting a $18,000/yr scholarship is functionally paying sticker.

$48,000+ per year? For tuition alone?

Did you apply to Rutgers? Sign a NJ lease (which will be cheaper than living anywhere within a 45 minute commute of Cardozo, to boot), and it's $25K per year. Assuming you could squeeze even $8K a year out of them, that's a savings of at least $40K for job prospects that are basically the same.

Graduating with $60-$80K debt sucks, but is livable on a $50K/yr salary (especially in NJ). Graduating with $100-$120K debt is a ball-breaker, amplified by the fact that you will be more tied to NYC living. That's a nightmare. As in, literally. I graduated last year with $58K in debt and I have nightmares of having $100K debt, as some of my friends do. They are fucked. I have cold sweats and get bad gas, the stress is so bad from those dreams.

Wait until next year, apply ED to Rutgers, if you don't want to retake.

Going into $100k debt for either sounds pretty freaking dumb
