Do I have a chance of getting into high finance or is it all over?
So, I've got basically all of my college decisions back and Ive only got into Northeastern, Indiana, and Marquette. All of these schools are already not the best maybe Indiana is a semi target, but they all cost way too much money. Indiana would be 60k a year almost. So, my only option now is to go to community college. I don't know if I have a chance of being able to break into sales and trading or wealth management which is the two things I am interested in as of right now. Financially going to a UC like UCLA or UCB would be the best for me to minimize debt since I live in California, but I don't know if I can delay graduation at a UC and 2 years is probably not enough time to get me a sales and trading job out of college even if I go to like UCB. My other option would be to try and be a sophomore transfer to a target or semi target like UChicago, Duke, Notre Dame, Columbia, etc. Here I would most likely be taking on a lot of debt graduating with probably 100-150K in debt, but I would have 3 years to get myself a good job. Its a bit scary though if I do take on that much debt because if I don't land a high paying job I would be in a pretty bad spot. Ig another option I was thinking I could maybe do is try and finish college at a UC and then get a MBA. I really have no clue and I'm thinking I should just play it safe go to like some UC and then get some accounting or small wealth management job. Any advice would be appreciated, thanks for reading.
in a similar spot to you... literally been rejection after rejection and only have a handful (and by a handful i mean one) school that is even worth attending... can your parents not pay for any of your college?
Damn yea its rough, my parents can't really pay for any of my college right now, but if I have a huge loan they will help me pay that off. It would probable be like 75 percent of it is paid by me 25 percent by them.
and you didn’t get any fin aid from kelley? imo kelley is solid.
debt not worth it for that caliber of schools imo
