Maybe give Misericordia a call, see if she can still apply, if they still offer merit, what the criteria is to advance to masters part of pa program, mention her stats and hospital volunteering experience?
I believe online app is free.
Are any of the 5 direct entry programs affordable? The problem is not just paying back the loans she takes out, you also might have to take out additional loans and will you be able to qualify for those for the next few years especially with 3 in college?
My daughter will take out grad loans for pharmacy school, but we are not able to take out additional parent plus loans, we have two other kids, although we will only have 2 in college at the same time for 3 years.
That’s why she was only able to go to a direct entry program because with her scholarship we can afford it.
