Can /biz/ help me navigate my student debt?
I am attending Quinnipiac university, tuition can be as much as 50k a year.
I just finished my first year, I was able to mostly pay off my first year with some financial aid from parents, along with saving for college during my HS years and working as a waiter. I'm thinking about getting a second job, and doing EMT work on the side.
I estimate I will be 350,000ish in debt when I graduate (4 years uni, 4 years medical)
I don't care if I will have to struggle, I need guidance
>$50k a year
>no name school
Why do you hate your parents?

Not him, but is 43k/year in debt worth it for a top 20 that places well in IB? I'm debating this
You already fucked up by going to a 50k/yr school
This is so stupid that your thread qualifies as bait
>>1395925
No
No one cares about your top 20 shit
Everything not IVY is on the same level

But job placement is really good from it
Also it beats two ivys in every ranking

Well I mean it's not quite no-name, they run one of the major polls for US elections. However I'm pretty sure the poll is regarded as shit and I've never heard about them doing anything else.

>What is MIT
>What is Stanford
>What is Caltech
Surely you jest, right? A degree from any of these programs will take you infinitely farther than anything from Dartmouth or Brown.

Lots of schools beat it IVY, but the whole point of those schools is the name recognition.
You've already made up your mind that the $172,000.00 plus cost of living is worth whatever job you get, so why are you even asking?

A handful of exemptions prove the rule
If op was going to MIT, then he would have said that. Unless stated otherwise, it's just an overpriced state school

What's your opinion on Cal/Michigan/Illinois/GATech in fields like engineering? Still just an overpriced state school? I'm going to one regardless, but I still believe your view a little narrow-minded. In fields like engineering the ivies can't even crack the top ten. As far as liberal arts go I agree that the Ivies have the best out there, plus their sheer dominance in Law.
