PRESENTATION OUTLINE

Reasons to consider UMO

  • Solid engineering school
  • Closeness yet far enough away
  • Pricing puts remaining balance at $9K per year
  • You could get your basic classes completed in years 1 & 2 much cheaper there

Why UMO?

  • You'd be close enough that if you got homesick, you could come home on a weekend. It does happen.
  • You'd be showing us that you can be disciplined on your own without a huge longterm investment on our part.
  • You have an opportunity now to show us you can focus and finish well.

Environmental challenges

  • Roommate
  • Dorm Life (and all that comes with this)
  • Ability to bite off more than you can chew
  • Adult life
  • ADHD

Finances

  • Financing $80-100,000 is a huge deal
  • You may make six figures, but there's taxes
  • You likely won't be working in Maine, so your cost of living will be much higher
  • You don't want to start out in a career with a huge pile of debt - no flexibility for your career
