<p>I was discussing the financial commitment involved in going to Brown today, and I was wondering if paying such a huge sum of money for undergrad would ever make it impossible to go to a good grad school or medical school. How expensive is grad school? Are loans and aid available at that point? How much money can you make as a TA? Basically, I’m starting to wonder going to Brown will force me to sacrifice my graduate career later in life.</p>
<p>My advice would be to call Phone: 401-863-2721 the Brown Financial Aid Office and see what their perspective is.</p>
<p>What subject area? In the sciences you rarely have to pay at all for grad school.</p>
<p>im planning on majoring in biophysics or something similar. is that really the case for the sciences?^^ That would definitely easy my mind.</p>
<p>no one pays tuition for a pure sciences graduate degree. they pay you (though not very much)</p>
<p>DCirlce has it right. Between TAing, grant money, blah blah blah, you end up making like 10-20k a year while pursuing a pure science graduate degree.</p>
<p>these days it's more like 20-30K at top schools</p>
