I know there is a financial aid forum but Im curious to poll you guys... I just got a financial aid package and I am blown away by the amount they expect me to borrow. My family doesnt make a lot of money and wont be contributing so I am doubly stunned. Is this normal? I often hear the average med student is in debt 100 or 150K but not closer to 200!!!! Any thoughts, is this sort of thing pay-off-able?
Can you sign up for loans with one school or one med school loan program, then get off the waitlist at another school just before classes start and switch your life and future earnings over to them?
Just curious - nothing like the prospect of owing a quarter million dollars after interest to make you question your career goals :wink:
