So my parents' income is just above 3 times the poverty level. I have about 2000 in savings, I work 20 hours a month at lets say 10 dollars an hour after tax (12 gross), so I'm making 200 dollars a month, and I cost $450 a month in living expenses. So I'm bleeding $250 a month essentially.
To get to the point, I am applying in June of 2011 to 20 to 30 schools, and if primaries are 50 bucks and I get 75% of secondaries which are 100 bucks, at 25 schools that will be $3000.
Any ideas for raising this money? If I get a "direct loan" from a loan company, will I be able to defer payment until after med school just like with loans that cover tuition?
