I Serve Larry's Stick
Here's the deal: my dream has been to study abroad in London. I never got the chance during my undergrad years (but I did spend a spring break there a few years back), and now that I'm in grad school, I was thinking of applying for a short program this summer at the University of Westminster.
My problem? Money of course. I've already got some loans racked up while getting my bachelor's, and now they are adding up more and more in grad school. This summer program will be about $5,000 and I'm sure loans would pay for that. Along with that, it costs $350 to apply. What if I don't get accepted? I'm not about to throw that much money into the wind, in the case that things don't work out for me.
So now I'm trying to decide if I should go for my dream, or just take a vacation there this summer. Naturally the vacation will cost much less, but I won't get to spend the amount of time there
that I would like to. But, that could also mean $5,000 less in total student loans.
What would you do?
