Any luck on this??

I'm guilty of reviving the thread. Just gettin a little stressed about Post Grad Debt right now and doing research about it. Ill be 30k in the hole soon from an MA program that I took to redeem myself for low undergrad numbers. I am now debating PHD or Law School and am going to try to stay in state for either in order to mimimize debt... RA and GA positions are getting tougher and tougher to come by these days..

So, what did ya wind up doing???

Yeah, don't stress.. My undergrad was a 2.56.. I went back 13 years later, took some undergrad courses and got A's in all of them and now I'm set to graduate with a 3.5 with an M.A. in History while starting on an MPA and debating between Law School or PHD.. My age (39) is a consideration, but my post graduation debt load is more of one. Due to time considerations I may do Law School as opposed to PHD, but I am still uncertain...

All the advice that I have gotten has stated to avoid private loans altogether..
