<p>hi! thanks for the reply</p>
<p>I’m from the CA Bay Area. Full ride (including room + board) would really be preferable…I guess I could try to get a job to cover a few thousand per year if I go for just tuition.</p>
<p>I guess I’m in a bad position because I really seek out a top education to prepare me for medical school/ grad school/ research career, but at the same time will likely have no parent support even though I can’t get any financial aid. (Parents have money v_v)</p>
