Money is definitely a necessity. You will be spending a lot and tuition and fees are expensive.

Eastern is to expensive in my opinion. Eastern's campus is much older than many other colleges. In my opinion they should upgrade the dorms, dining halls, and classrooms to make it up to date. Considering it is a smaller school it shouldn't be as expensive as they are making us pay.
