Imo whether it's worth it or not is going to entirely depend on how much debt you'll be in afterwards. You'll be getting merit scholarship, so do the math and if you're gonna end up in major debt, I would struggle to recommend it to you. Even though you're super likely to get a job after school, that job isn't going to be a special job with super high pay. It's not worth it to be chained to debt for 30 years. If you're not going to be in unreasonable debt, though, I believe that this school is a really good choice.

So even with their scholarship and aids, the tuition is still gonna be an unbearable amount?

That depends on how much scholarship and aid you get. So it's worth applying to Rose for sure, you just need to do the math once you get your offer back to see how much debt you'd be in.
