I think weighing those factors is incredibly sensible. I'm not sure how you are paying for your education - but graduating with a hundred thousand dollars of student loan debt is quite a burden for a young person.

I worked at full and jobs pay for both of my degrees, from public universities. Having a strong aversion to debt, I decided I would rather pay as I go. It took me an extra year to complete my undergrad; I did my grad program at night school over the course of four years. I have never regretted this approach.
