Presumably in ~2 weeks I'll be able to make my choice. I want to commit to Chapel Hill but I don't know what the funding situation is. I presume it won't be great, but it comes down to "Is it at least good enough that I don't have to take out massive private student loans?" I don't mind taking out a federal loan, or even a small private, but I don't want to have to fund the next two expensive years of my life via Wells Fargo.
So I'm waiting on a funding offer from them, and also waiting to hear back from the University of Utah about both admission and funding. I'll more than likely get in, so it just comes down to funding. Since I'm in-state there I suspect the difference between the two programs will be staggering, but CH is a million times better fit for my goals and interests. Just gotta find out what the money situation is so I can commit to something. Wish I knew how me-10-years-from-now would choose. I'm so worried about coming through an amazing program but then being depressed my entire life as I'm crushed with loan debt.
