About the paying of med school..

<p>Hey guys I have a question</p>

<p>If an internation student attend a 4year college in the state, NY for example, and go to a public med school in NY, is the paying a LOT ? I know that public colleges have different costs for instate and outstate. Is it the same to med school? What is the average pay per year in med school.? If I attend a college in NY for 4 years and then go to a public med school in NY, am I considered as in-state even thought I am not a US citizen?</p>

<p>thanks!!!</p>

<p>International students will be considered out of state for tuition purposes for public medical schools even if you have attended an undergrad college in the same state.</p>

<p>Your costs will be the same as an out of state student.</p>

<p>For the current costs of SUNY Downstate, see their webpage:
<a href=“http://sls.downstate.edu/bursar/tuition_fees.html”>http://sls.downstate.edu/bursar/tuition_fees.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>Currently SUNY Downstate costs over $30,000 per semester just for tuition. You will have additional costs, including housing & food, transportation, school fees, books, mandatory health insurance. There will be additional costs for exam fees for the national (required) licensing exams.</p>

<p>International students are ineligible for financial aid at most medical schools and must provide proof of the ability to pay before you will be allowed to enroll.</p>

<p>First of all, why we are talking about NY schools? I am not even sure if SUNY accept international students. And of course you need at least around $200k in the bank before applying to ANY medical schools</p>
