Since it's officially Stanford, I have a long to-do list ahead of me. Item one: loan research for next year!
GOOD NEWS: Stanford gave me $32,979 in grant/fellowship money!
BAD NEWS: The remainder of the year's estimated cost is $53,120, which I will have to cover in loans. Here's the breakdown:
$3,000 in a Federal Perkins Loan (5%)
$8,500 in a Federal Stafford Loan (subsidized through school)
$12,000 in a Federal Unsubsidized Stafford Loan (6.8%)
$29,620 in GradPLUS or Private Loans (7.9-8.5% or dependent on my credit rating)
All for one year of my life! Whew. My to-do list: finding out more about Stanford preferred lenders, if there are any, and if not - immersion in GradPLUS.
