College acceptances and compatibility (financial, academic, personal)

<p>These days, biology majors are majority women. However, pre-meds may be of any major, although they will need to complete the pre-med course work which overlaps considerably with biology major course requirements.</p>

<p>Since she is a pre-med, do you have any intention of offering her any of the savings toward medical school costs if she attends a lower cost undergraduate school? Remember that medical school is [url=&lt;a href=“https://services.aamc.org/tsfreports/]expensive[/url”&gt;https://services.aamc.org/tsfreports/]expensive[/url</a>] (note that they are just tuition and fees, not including living expenses), and most pre-meds are lucky to get into one medical school, meaning that they may not have much of a choice to choose a less expensive one. If her medical goal is a lower paid specialty (e.g. the primary care ones), she may not be able to afford to enter such a specialty if she has to pay off heavy medical school debt.</p>
