    smart borrowing college choice should be based on degree awarded and debt needed to acquire that degree. in march or april, each college that has accepted you will provide a financial aid package which includes the grants, scholarships, and loans needed to cover the cost. the rule of thumb is to only borrow as much as you will make (income) your first year out of school. that being said, you can list the college, your intended major, and your financial aid package and the system generates how much money in total you will be borrowing and how much you will be paying back per month. make a decision based on information, not emotion.   http://www.educationplanner.org/students/my-smart-borrowing/index.shtml
