David, it sucks to be in your position and I can sympathize. Most of us developers suck at UI/UX design and end up looking for "our guy/gal" designer too... and we don't have any money either.

A 21 month University of Chicago Booth MBA runs about 160k ( http://www.chicagobooth.edu/fulltime/admissions/costs.aspx ), two of those is 320k. For just another 30k (10% more than you are already in debt/paid for) you could probably find a development shop to do an MVP. But 5k -10k on E-lance isn't going to do it.

Actually student loans is one of the best ways to borrow money. Very good point, we will look into this.
