Tesla intern. Should I transfer out of college?
Hey Blind community I currently feel like I'm in a rut and would really appreciate some advice on my situation.
I am attending a top 15 private university as a sophomore, and have to pay full tuition. My parents are adamant on having me pay college for myself, which is understandable because it holds me accountable to do well in school. I was able to intern at Tesla for the duration of a year- and I was able to make connections while building great resume experience (no full time offer bc I'm not graduating yet).
I have been looking into private loans and based off my credits, I will have to be in school for 5 more semesters which means I will be in ~200k debt if I remain. I've talked to the financial aid office at my school and received basically no aid since they looked at my parents financials.
What should I do? One one hand I don't want to be in so much debt coming out of undergrad. At the same time I am scared that if I transfer to a cheap school (CUNY or SUNY since I'm from ny unfortunately not cali), I will be limiting my career/networking opportunities. Please help!!!
