University of Tulsa

Well when I was in Tulsa on tuesday I went to have a tour of University of Tulsa. I met with a woman named Carol who talked to me about their business program, costs and so forth. It would run me 25k USD a year, but with the 5k scholarship that would bring it down to 20k/year. This includes, tuition, books, food, living and medical. Not that bad considering everything.

Though when I got back home to talk to my folks they said 20k/year is too much because thats 30k/year Canadian. BUT then I got something in the mail that appears to have been "over nighted" to my house. Its a hand written letter from the woman I spoke to saying (in a nut shell) that if the cost of coming here is what will stop me from going to school there that they would work something out, something a little closer to what I could afford.

Now the question is do I go for this opertunity or do I stay closer to home? I would be without a car for at least the first year, and it is a smaller town.

I need to mention that with my marks - even though I think they're bad- this place would take me if I applied.

Your thoughts?
