extraordinary cost

I was wondering how people that attend schools like NYU (77k/year) pay off their debt. Are these students getting parental or some other outside assistance. I just seems like a tall order to pay off and if you want to specialize that's even more money. My wife and I will attend a state school and we will have 2 DDS degrees that some people will be paying for 1 degree. I just don't get it.

How to pay or not pay from your own pocket:
Parental support (Lucky dudes)or
working their butts off (Normal way), or
by winning a lottory (unraealastic way), or
get a rich spouse (easy way), or
Commit suicide (escape rout!)

This is a good question... althought I'm hoping to get into school with low tuition costs (which I think is less than 150K), how much does it come out to when you go to a school like NYU where students supposedly come out w/ 300K total? How much does that come out to per month on a 30 year loan, and how much total are you going to be paying with interest and everything?

My HP 10IIB says:

300K 6% 30 years: $1798.65/month
300K 6% 15 years: $2531.57/month

What about 5-7 years?

haha...most of the students here just block out the amount of loans we have. I would say that a mjority (close to ~50%) of the students here are from CA. And knowing how competitive CA schools are, lots of them missed out on state tuition. Same w/ me. Got waitlisted at my state schools so it was b/w Nova and NYU and Nova "relatively speaking" isn't too far behind in tuition, so tuition wasn't a deciding factor in coming here.

To the OP, I'm still working on that. Gotta start studying at NYU Medical school library. Hopefully marry some ophthalmologist so we can get eye/oral exams for free...

300K 6% 5 years: $5,799.84/month (good luck!)

10 Years is probably more realistic:

50K 6% 10 years: $555.10/month
100K 6% 10 years: $1110.20/month
200K 6% 10 years: $2220.40/month
300K 6% 10 years: $3330.60/month

I thought NYU students ended up owing about 250k and Nova 180K. I always thought that this large gap might end up being the deciding factor for me to go to Fl, both schools are great though. Are my numbers wrong?

What a great link...hope my name will never be there

I was flipping through a few schools and look at Marquette...man whats up with these numbers:

Yea your figures are about right. I just remember sitting down w/ the parents and talkin about the tuition difference b/w the two schools. We pretty much came to the conclusion that for ~$50,000 just go to the school that would make you happier. You're gonna be takin out a huge amt of loans in both situations anyways so make the best of it...lol

I've been accepted to my state school, but I have an interview at NYU in Feb. If I decide to take the military scholarship, they will pay for my tuition and living expenses no matter where I go; however, the military only gives you 1,100/month stipend to cover living expenses. This may not be enough to live in NY. So money is still coming out of my pocket. I assume there is a much higher proportion of students at NYU who are going the military route to pay for tuition. Brocnizer, am I correct in this assumption?

In my class, I do not know of anyone that is doing a military scholarship. But then again I only associate with about 40 students.
