Need advice on the A and BBB loans

Hello everyone, long time lurker here. Just today learned I was accepted to Rosalind Franklin University, very happy to learn that. The issue however is the cost. I don't have parents or literally any family members that can co-sign on private loans for me and my credit isn't particularly amazing either (grew up in poverty 😞). RFU Medical School has previously told me that I can borrow under the old Grad PLUS limits for 3 years but the 4th year it would be up to me to cover the ~75k tuition plus living expenses equals about ~117k. Is this even realistic anymore for someone like me? I've always wanted to go into Psychiatry but with the cost would it be a better idea to turn this down and press hard for an in state (Michigan) school with this current cycle?

Sorry for the ramble y'all but this has me going crazy
