1. Finish school, take out a 30G loan. 

This 'seems' like the most sensible option, yet it's not. I barely finished paying my last loan with help from parents, which ended up roasting their savings. I don't want to put any more financial burdens on them again, but I don't know if I'll be able to pay this off once I get out of school. I wanted to know if anyone here has taken out big school loans and if so, what happened? Did you pay it off? Are you still paying it off? Is this an advisable move for me to make.

Take out a student loan and finish school.  You'll have 6 months after graduating before you have to make your first payment, that should be enough time to get some type of job even if it's not in your field.  Not to mention, $30k isn't as bad as you think, you'll be able to pay it off in no time.
