So u were able to afford $90k for one year and now all of a sudden can’t pay for the remaining years? I’m confused why would u choose Northeastern to begin with

Same situation for me the only option is to take out loans for the full amount so basically we gotta pay the full amount

op literally said they can afford the school they just don’t want to pay….. they aren’t eligible for financial aid for a reason. if they don’t like it they should just transfer

i moved off campus 2nd yr to save money, it’s cheaper for an apartment with your own bedroom and you spend WAY less on food. saves me thousands per semester

if it’s too late for fall semester you can definitely still move out for spring semester, i think the deadline is like dec 1st. cancellation fees for housing don’t apply if you do the waiver

hate to break it to u but college is expensive and if your family doesn't qualify for need based financial that's cuz u can afford the tuition.
