M0 not well versed in these topics, so please be nice if you crucify me. As far as I can tell, the apartments near my medical school that are affordable in the COA are kinda gross. I’m a nontrad and just want a modestly-sized one bedroom apartment, nothing crazy. How bad is it to borrow ~$400/month above the COA via private loans to get a semi-decent place?
FWIW my school hasn’t given out financial aid details beyond the COA on their website, but from what I can tell based on that, spending over 1k/month on rent probably isn’t realistic. They are giving me a 1/3 tuition scholarship if it makes a difference. And yes, I can cook for myself, make my own coffee, etc.
