Hello all,
I don't know if this is the proper place to post this, but here it goes. I am a 26 year old URM, I just graduated undergrad with a 3.9 gpa in Anthropology and now I am enrolling in post-bacc programs. I'm still waiting to hear if I get into UCR via the UC-consortium but in the meanwhile I accepted CSUSM's post-bacc. The pacing of CSUSM's post-bacc seems perfect, hower the funding is my current barrier. I will have to take out private loans. If anyone has any advice on that, that would be so helpful. I am the first in my family to make it this far academic wise; I funded undergrad on my own and now I'm in a spot where I don't know what to do.
As a doctor I want to work with underserved communities. I really want to work in rural areas and give back and help those who do not have equal access to healthcare. this whole journey thus far has been stressful and I just need some advice from someone who has been there. I tried looking for scholarships for that kind of work, but they've all been for MD/DO and I'm not quite there yet. Does anyone know of anything at the post-bacc level? Calling my financial aid office at school today was super not helpful...
thank you so much !
