  1. That's why attending private schools (or any school you can't afford without help) is risky.  They'll give you tons of money your first and second year to get you there, then when it's too late for you to transfer, stick you with the full bill your jr and sr years.  

    Do what is best for you.


  2. If you don't get loans as a part of your financial aid every year, it is reasonable to expect that.

  3. It is not unreasonable as long as either your parents are paying your expenses, or you are willing to work hard enough to pay your expenses.  A lot of people graduate debt-free because they work like crazy during the summers, get scholarships, live frugally, and have parents who help out.  You are lucky that yours do.  

  4. If you get student loans, you will have debt when you graduate. How much depends on how many student loans you get to finance for your remaining years in college.

    You could always apply for other scholarships from other private organizations. This site may help:

    Search for scholarship awards that you can qualify for and apply to them. The more awards you can win, the less you'll need to depend on student loans.
