<p>It doesn’t matter where they put the gap and the EFC…this family still sounds like they need to take out loans for the total of the gap/EFC.</p>
<p>Oh…I may have misunderstood the OP. I didn’t think they would need to do the Plus loan if she went to WSU since their portion would be about $7k (actually less since they probably wouldn’t have to borrow the amounts for travel and incidentals $3500). I think that if the OP gets a W/S part-time job during the school year to cover incidentals and also works in the summer, she could borrow less, too.</p>
<p>GO WSU. Their offer is MUCH BETTER. You want to graduate premed with AS LITTLE DEBT as possible if you plan to go to med school. Take the merit aid and run with it</p>
<p>Yes, yes, yes!</p>
