Re: U-Mich How Much?
It really depends on your goals and lifestyle.
Its defensible if you can live with not getting biglaw and paying off those loans over 20 years. If you go to Michigan and strike out you'll almost certainly find a job sooner or later if you're not overly picky. 10, 20 years down the line you could be making really good money - or you could be a normal middle class salary. Its hard to know. 150k in debt is not so great that it will ruin you if you make 40-60k your first few years and 60-80k after that. I would recommend doing your best to keep those loans down while you're in school. Borrow as little as possible.

I think it's defensible. Definitely retake in June though.

It's probably defensible.
Not retaking in June would not be defensible however.

Not defensible. Take a full ride to Vandy or GULC.

Ignore Tom Joad. He's just popping in for his bi-monthly troll job of the on-topics.

Re: U-Mich How Much?
Worth it if you're ok being in Chicago. Not worth it if you want to be in W.V., cause the money on the other end differs a ton between those two places. Congrats on being admitted to Michigan. Don't consider going to Illinois.
