I am working part time, full time summer, and going to a private college with very high tuition, which is local. I would like to transfer to a public school with much more opportunity. My job is great and they want me to work here after graduation. The tuition debt would be far less, but the travel would be greatly increased. What do you all think.

I will have be coming back to work daily. The current cost (gas) or future cost (debt) is really what i have to think about.

It comes down to which college you like nmost. Driving an hour and a half isn't so bad.Especially if you schedule classes only on MWF or TTh. I live in Houston and know people that drive 3 hrs each way to go to Texas A&M. Also figure if you really save on tution verses your gas cost.

I think that depends upon your overall energy levels. Sales jobs can take a lot out of you, and if you are likely to fall asleep at the wheel (or fail to get much out of lectures in class) during the commute, I wouldn't recommend it. On the other hand, we do have grad students who travel that far on a regular basis after work, so it can be done.

Depends on how you are commuting. Are you driving or taking public transportation? If you are driving, think of the cost of gas. If you are taking public transportation, then think of how much traveling on a bus or trolley for that long will take up your time.

Do you really want to take three hours out of your day just to drive?
