So..... You Wanna Know What Med School Costs?
Eryn got her financial aid package today.
It basically boils down to this: Tuition $55,736 Scholarship - $26,806.00 Therefore, it will cost her $28,930.00 for tuition, per year, not to include books or living expenses. The entire package consists of $79,806.00 in scholarship and loans. Therefore, $79,806 - $55,736 = $23,736 to live on in DC... If you figure $1500/ mo rent, she'll have $400/month to live on She lived on less than that in Africa Personally, I think that she hit the jackpot. With undergrad and medical student loans, all told, she'll owe ~$244k Not a bad investment if you ask me. btw... Thank you Will for your insight. |

And she can continue to apply for more scholarships while in school. If she is employed at a hospital during the summers or even part time, check and see if they offer scholarships for employees. The volunteer group I belong to has a scholarship program for employees advancing their education in the medical field. Over the years, we have even helped cafeteria workers become RNs. The scholarships are small, but we are a small hospital and every little bit helps.
Hint: They usually like the idea that you intend to continue a working relationship with that hospital after graduation, though they may not absolutely require it to receive the money. Best of luck to your daughter. |

IF that is her in your avatar there, I would be too......
but sears, good on HER, hope she stays in the states, maybe get a gig at NIH right next door to her med school.....Bethesda Md, is just up the road a tad...maybe 6 miles or so do THAT on the Metro, don't even need a CAR..... for that matter, you could try HUGHES Medical Institute.....Howard Hughes Medical trust 3.5 billion bux some 30 years ago, they built a campus next door to NIH.....maybe they could have something for her....they finance R&D in close cooperation with NIH so to get max bang for the bux..... These daze NIH is like the White House for getting in/out of the joint....due to the nuclear reactor on campus, and it is very much a college campus type atmosphere......an old contractor friend shut down his business, and took on a job for Hughes Med.....head of physical plant/construction of the campus..... |

Is she trying to live in georgetown? My friend's parents have a rental down there. I helped him show it once. Was in a nice area. We walked to a bunch of shops.

I wish her and you the best. Make sure she investigates the ROI on areas to specialize in.

In-state med school in Texas is DIRT cheap. When my Dr daughter went to UT San Antonio, the cost was 9k/year including the books (11 years ago). Thomas Jefferson in Philly was 44k at that time, not including books. UT Houston is now only $16,300/yr for tuition and books.
My total cost for her education was about $250k all from the bank of dad. Undergraduate at Univ of Pennsylvania (no scholarship) Med school at UTSA - tuition and living expenses Residency at Barnes Jewish in St. Louis (5 years) Fellowship in Tampa (1 year) I'm happy that I paid because if I had kept the money, R Allen Stanford would have gotten it. That's 14 years of education after high school before you even begin earning anything significant. It's nice she has no debt. I'm waiting for a new Z06 with the Z07 package to show up (like THAT will ever happen). |
