So I am looking at 80000 dollars in debt for a four year college, with about 75 % of that being at 6.5% and the rest being federal loans at around 4%. The college claims that the median salary for a four year student leaving the major I am in(computer science) is 95,000$ a year. This college has connections to google, microsoft, red hat, and basically a plethora of other companies. The amount of debt that I have makes me uneasy. I have enough of everything that I never have a problem functioning as a person while having as little as I need to avoid clutter and not spend unnecessarily. My main frivolous spending is on social events, which I spent 23$ on last semester.. In no way am I a monk, I just get my contentment in life out of interacting with other people primarily. But anyway I am rambling. My two main questions are: Why should or shouldn't I believe their income claim, considering that the study is publicly viewable?(not going to link, I'm already too easy to dox)
Based on the previous answer, what financial situation am I looking at when I get out of college? In your mind, what it be worthwhile to consider going to another college instead?
