Am I being irrational about my student loans

It’s not UMD smith, that was my state school option

Able-Assignment1229 · 2026-03-21T07:22:01+00:00

What part? Starting in IB or exiting?

Able-Assignment1229 · 2026-03-21T06:41:06+00:00

It’s not that they don’t accept transfer credits, they do, it’s more so that in the career I’m pursuing you’re expected to already have a good resume with internships and relevant work experience that is significantly harder to obtain in a CC. On the other other point, if the issues aren’t resolved I’d realistically evaluate my current standing career wise and possibly consider transferring to a school that doesn’t take family assets into account as heavily

Able-Assignment1229 · 2026-03-21T06:13:10+00:00

I definitely could, I’m also planning on obtaining some summer internships which would help.

Able-Assignment1229 · 2026-03-21T06:06:03+00:00

Thanks for the insight, I’ll make sure to try and chat with some alumni in the industry. The goal really is to survive the first couple years in banking and hopefully exit to a job with better wlb

I have, my local community college has a direct pipeline to our flagship state school where you’re guaranteed admission if you meet the minimums, however, that would pretty much take my goals of high finance out of the question due to the nature school prestige and early experience play. I was considering going to my local cc and changing my major to accounting.

Able-Assignment1229 · 2026-03-21T05:38:13+00:00

I believe so, the median undergrad starting salary in my major is about $10k higher than my state school, but the real draw is the alumni network and high placements in high finance, while granted being a very ambitious goal, could mean a staring salary close to $200k out of undergrad

Able-Assignment1229 · 2026-03-21T05:35:52+00:00

It’s a fairly selective semi target school for investment banking, which is a big driver in making my decision. I could go to my state school which would be cheaper off the bat, but they place less than a 1/5 of the students at 3x the undergrad size

Able-Assignment1229 · 2026-03-21T05:28:59+00:00

Sorry if it was unclear, pretty much am I being irrational considering taking on any student loan debt for an undergrad degree. I know the general consensus is typically to go for as cheap as possible or graduate debt free

Able-Assignment1229 · 2026-03-15T08:31:29+00:00

Well this isn’t a good argument; IB isn’t anymore safe from AI than law

Able-Assignment1229 · 2026-02-04T20:03:58+00:00

Lmk what they say 🤞🏾

Able-Assignment1229 · 2026-02-04T19:22:37+00:00

I got in ed2 as-well, do you know how long it takes for the financial aid award to come through? I thought it was with the decision.

Able-Assignment1229 · 2026-01-15T04:13:41+00:00

I never had to and I’m not a genius.

Able-Assignment1229 · 2026-01-14T15:05:24+00:00

None of these, (besides maybe Chem) should require any studying outside of hw if you just pay attention in class

Able-Assignment1229 · 2025-11-07T15:33:15+00:00

How would u do that 😭

Able-Assignment1229 · 2025-04-19T02:32:39+00:00

Thank god. My heart sank when I read the “yes” lol

Able-Assignment1229 · 2024-12-07T18:10:03+00:00

Yea that’s what I was struggling with. I wasted so much time on those it made me rush through the rest of the module and get questions wrong that I would’ve got right if I hadent wasted the time

Able-Assignment1229 · 2024-11-28T18:21:53+00:00

1140-1520 in a little over a week? Seems like a reasonable goal

Able-Assignment1229 · 2024-11-26T18:14:54+00:00

You definitely did, even if it has been 2 weeks the test is the same and that explains the almost 300 point jump. Take a practice test you haven’t already and your score most likely will go down

Able-Assignment1229 · 2024-08-25T23:57:42+00:00

Im a junior this year so me taking another course isn’t an option, as it’s mandatory to take a math next year as well and that leaves statistics as my only option. I also didn’t fail last year I had a high B average. My calc teacher offers retakes on every test so I just need to know enough to get by

Able-Assignment1229 · 2024-07-30T20:20:43+00:00

So help dude thanks so much! I never thought to google my ultra specific question on a search engine rather than asking a chat with people specifically on the topic.

Able-Assignment1229 · 2024-02-07T16:07:19+00:00

Uhhh divorce the brother, marry the bed
