Currently attend UBC, was accepted as a junior transfer to CC with no finaid, and my family is dirt poor. Would I be stupid to take out $100k in loans?

Columbia has a HUGE endowment for College/Engineering financial aid. What went wrong?? Are you College/Engineering, Barnard, or General Studies?

Transfer aid is first-come, first-served, and I got fucked over by a filing error. D of Financial aid said I have a tiny chance at some aid, but he said not to count on it. I'm Columbia College.

It's your choice. If you are smart enough to get into Columbia College as a transfer I would bet money on your success in life, whether you attend Columbia or not.

Good luck!

... and see what they offer? My experience is that Ivy schools only get you an interview. A star from Iowa can be better than a dud from Yale -- provided the individual gets an interview. Ivies get you an interview (usually).

The deal is Columbia is in New York City, and on the graduate level Columbia offers programs not yet established to be endowed -- so you pay the tuition. This has been going on since 1900, and these programs have produced Nobels and billionaires. People who bet on their chances.

But on an undergraduate level, the programs are massively endowed (except General Studies), so you should get a package comparable to the very best (i.e. Harvard, Yale).

Of course there is innate value to liberal education aside from name or cost (a point that eludes many on this board.) Columbia here is a gold mine.

He's an international student, you dipshit. Finaid is not guaranteed.

Princeton doesn't accept transfers. God you're fucking stupid.
