TLDR: Can I qualify for in-state tuition after receiving a 1-year deferment? I was originally classified as OOS for tuition purposes.
I recently applied for and received a deferral to begin medical school next year (2025) instead of this year. I am currently considered OOS for tuition purposes...
I have been fortunate enough to have been accepted to my top MD school earlier this week. I, of course, filled out the FAFSA, and the school mentioned that they give out need and merit based scholarships.
Just today, I was sent an email regarding a scholarship but it did not mention whether it...
Im in-state california. I'm hoping to apply to UCLA/UCSF next year because it's cheaper but they're also very competitive, so I was wondering, assuming I have to head towards privates, what would be the average debt since tuitions increase every year?
Would it be possible to have 200-300k debt...
Hello everyone,
I would like to bring attention to the Chinese American Physicians Society scholarship. Each year, we award scholarships of $2000.00 to $5000.00 per selected student. This opportunity is available to all US medical students regardless of their hometown, gender, race or color...
I wrote off applying to AEGD because I had heard from classmates that they all require tuition, whereas GPR's don't. I've just been looking into AEGD and noticed that there are definitely programs that don't charge tuition and even give stipends. Some of the programs don't have that information...
Hi,
I recently expressed my concerns to my family about student debt and how I was preparing myself to give up my dream schools (when/if I do get in) for ones that will be less of a financial burden for me later in life. My family reached out to me (sister & dad who are both doctors) and they...
Hi, I'm applying this cycle and the idea of student loans and being in 130k+ of debt has been on my mind a lot recently.
does anyone know of cheaper programs/programs that typically offer good financial aid or merit scholarships to incoming first years?
Hello everyone,
I had a question about tuition for New York State schools (such as the SUNYs, Einstein, Stony Brook, NYMC). I have heard conflicting things online, so does anyone know if they allow students to claim in-state tuition for M2 and onwards? If they do, can someone explain how that...
Hello everyone,
I will be a Canadian student entering a DO program in the US starting in August. I was trying to find the best loan opportunities out there as well as scholarship opportunities.
Which bank would you guys recommend? I had TD and CIBC in mind, but I guess it is up to whoever...
Hey All,
So I have been accepted to a medical school and plan on attending as of right now, but am still on the waitlist at my top choice school NYULI. NYULI emailed me saying I was on the * high-priority waitlist* and then rejected many of the other applicants on the waitlist according to the...
I have heard several schools are giving their graduating students several hundred dollars in tuition reimbursement or graduation fund reimbursement!?!?!
Any other 4th years getting some sort of gift or financial compensation?
If so, please list: gift and school.
Hopefully with enough data, we...
Hello all! Has there been any movement on medical students discussing or receiving partial tuition reimbursement for school closures due to COVID-19?
Loyola Stritch is reimbursing for gym and parking fees but administration is resistant to partial tuition reimbursement. We have no live...
Hey guys! I've been fortunate enough to receive acceptances at two wonderful locations, however, I'm struggling to decide which place would be a better fit for the next four years of my life.
UCLA DGSOM vs UC Davis
UCLA
Pros:
Prestige - may help with residency applications
Attended undergrad...
Hi All,
This application cycle is finally winding down for me. I've narrowed it down to two schools, NYU and UCLA. I'm California born and raised, and eventually I would love to settle down in Northern California, near my family and significant other. UCLA seems like a great fit in terms of...
Hi,
I was told by a friend 5 years ago that paying tuition during rotations was like paying the school to work FOR the school. Soon I'll be in my friend's position and was wondering why the system is like this?
Is there a way to reform this? Protest? So rotation years are FREE? I'm not asking...
Hi! Sorry if this has been answered elsewhere, but I searched old forum posts and really could not find what I was looking for. I have been accepted to a couple schools and I'm still waiting to hear back from a few, but I want to be proactive and start thinking about finances now. Almost all of...
Hi all,
I was lucky enough to be accepted to all the dental schools I applied to, and have narrowed it down to three (which I have already put down deposits for). However, I am struggling severely with which school to choose. I want to specialize- and am specifically interested in OMFS- so...
Ok so here is the problem I have encountered. I have been accepted to Louisville and IU. IU is my state school so only 250k whereas Louisville is out of state which is 400k maybe a tad more. Louisville is the school I would rather go to but I dont know if i can do it with there being that much...
Hello everyone,
I was just wondering whether anyone who had to write a remediation exam (or know anyone who did) could provide some insight if there is a fee to write this exam. For instance, if someone has t write a remediation exam for course A, do they have to re-pay the tuition associated...
I know this question gets asked a lot but I haven't seen a recent thread giving an overview of different programs. OMFS programs are usually overviewed more in depth on SDN, and I'd like to start that for perio.
Can anyone give insight into your perio residency or what you have heard about...
I am interested in emergency medicine/surgery. so I know I can pursue those specialities with the HPSP. However, I am concerned about my career after I fulfil the 4 years. Will there be limitations when I return to civilian healthcare? will I be at advantage/disadvantage? Are there any strings...
I am creating this thread so that I can connect with my fellow IHS students. Feel free to post questions in this thread concerning housing, tuition, contacts, and anything else IHS related. Looking forward to meeting you all this August!
I was recently accepted to ICO and NECO and now comparing the two. For the longest time I thought NECO was going to be more expensive, but it's looking to be the opposite. I thought Chicago's slightly lower cost of living compared to Boston would even things out, but ICOs tuition is super high...
Hi everyone,
I am applying to dental schools this cycle and am currently in the process of choosing where I want to apply. I was wondering what public schools offer in-state tuition to out-of-state students who go about establishing domicile/changing their residency while they are in dental...
Any advice for pursuing a research-based program (due to significant cost difference / funding) when I know I want to practice clinically? Will I survive the transition and be prepared enough? :thinking:
The program is ranked in the Top 15 programs nationally, but they do carry a stronger...
Hey guys. So I just interviewed at ICO and they mentioned we would be able to find out acceptances the first week of April.
Has anyone had the experience of hearing back sooner from them?
Also does anyone know if the loan amounts your approved for significantly varies by school?
For example I...
How much are you paying/will be paying tuition for school? I feel like 60-70 k for a full program tuition is the average?
Do you think it is worth it to pay that much plus room and board for a job that will make 75-80 k a year? I think it is just wondering everyone's input.
Although I am waiting to hear back from University of Denver's PsyD program, I'm worried about the tuition. It's $62,000 a year. Is it even worth it? I was accepted to Florida Tech and their tuition is $29,000 a year. Can I justify DU's price??? Anyone attending a costly PsyD program, and if so...
I wanted to start thread to share stats, offer support, and to ask questions about Temple's application process.
Has anyone applied to Temple for the Summer 2018 cohort? Has anyone been accepted or waitlisted? What has your experience been?
If you are a current or former student, what...
Current medical and podiatry school applicant. So far I have 4 out of 5 interviews to the podiatry schools I applied to; BUCPM, TUCPM, SCPM, & KSCPM. None for med school at the moment.
Eventually the talk about tuition will come depending on the school I choose. So, I would just like to...
Hey guys!
I have the amazing issue this year of being accepted into several schools. Im OOS/WICHE for all of them but I don't have full confidence that I'll get a WICHE sponsorship or spot in each school since there's just so few of them. Looking at the OOS tuitions, I am definitely...

I am interested in pursuing a career in Medicine. I graduated with a Bachelors of Science in Nursing, but I messed around during my pre-requisite courses/pre-nursing college career and hence my cumulative GPA is 3.27. I would literally have to re-take an entire bachelors degree to bring it up to...
I have been accepted to Upstate Medical University, and I really like the school. But I'm out of state and tuition is crazy high: $66k. I have read around the internet that it may be possible to switch to in-state tuition after your first year, which is a much more reasonable $45k. Can anyone...
I'm a TX resident and only applied to the 3 dental schools in TX, but I'm thinking about living in the Northeast (like NJ) in the future. I will find out if I am accepted this Friday. I have two routes to choose from before I really get in too deep and can't turn back:
Option 1: Accept a TX...
Wondering if anyone was accepted for the Fall 2018 cycle!?
I also wondering how to balance the cost of tuition and if it wouldn't be cheaper to attend a masters program (in-state) and then a post-professional degree? Or just curious how much the average OTD program costs to compare USD to...
Currently I'm working part time jobs while getting core classes done at community (to reduce debt). Getting my associates is taking a long time as it is, due to working so much. I already have taken out 7,000 in financial aid and am not even half way done my associates. My grades are amazing...
