Date: May 12th, 2013 8:53 PM Author: sable pozpig I knew this young, relatively underqualified young African American chap (not dumb, but not really on par with his peers). He got into Cooper Union and maxed out his undergrad loans every year to pay for a 1BD apartment in the East Village. He flunked out a semester before graduating with about 90K in debt (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=2254302&forum_id=2#23185886) |

Date: May 13th, 2013 2:41 PM Author: Contagious Striped Hyena Toilet Seat I always think it is highly suspect when you are "flunked out" a semester before you graduate. Either the person is lying and flunked out earlier and just pretended they were still in college or the school really did him a disservice. If your grades are shit, they should flunk you out by the end of 2nd year. If they don't, they really should have a program to get you through graduation - even if it is a mix of a semester off, fewer classes or academic probation.

edit:
Cooper Union’s new engineering and art building on East 7th Street cost $166 million. Trustees said the college’s development consultants told them that a signature building with a marquee architect would attract a large donor eager to have his or her name on a trophy building. But it didn’t.
The term of the loan was 30 years, at an interest rate of 5.875 percent, which amounts to more than $10 million in interest payments a year. By today’s standards, 5.875 percent is exorbitant, but the college said it couldn’t refinance the loan at a lower rate.
*This week, angry students were occupying the president’s office in protest. They might be even angrier to learn that some of their future tuition dollars could be going to support wealthy hedge fund managers who oversee some of the school’s $666.7 million endowment. |
