Dilema

Hey guys,

Well I was just accepted to my absolute dream school - UVA, but I'm starting to second guess going there. I mean I whole heartedly want to go to that school, but my parents make way to much for me to apply for FA. I was also accepted to FSU with a full ride.

The deal I have with my parents is that they'll pay 40k a year for whatever school I attend. But if they pay the 40k a year, they will not pay a nickle for grad school. So if I got to UVA I will not only have to take on some debt (around 25k), but I will also have zero money for grad school. On the other hand, if I go to FSU, I will have zero debt and will have grad school payed for.

After school, I want to break into IB. What do you guys think would be the smartest option for me?

Thanks

 

Definitely choose UVA. Your undergrad name will stay with you for the rest of your career. If you want to have the option to pursue an Investment Banking career, UVA will open far more doors than FSU.
