<p>@MYOS1634 thank you so much for all of your help and patience with me! I ran the net price calculator; $27,000 total, approximated $14,000 in aid (+merit aid eventually I’m assuming), $5000 in loans, $2500 from work, with remaining cost of $5000.
I won’t be going out of state per request of my parents. No idea what I want to major in; I’ve looked at becoming a pre-med student, travel & tourism, public relations/marketing, business, nutrition… Not that I can’t find something I’m interested in, I just can’t decide on a single thing. I love my health courses but can’t see myself handling med offices well (I’d be bored) and a hospital setting might be really stressful for me. On the other hand, I feel like travel or business would waste my extensive health field knowledge.
I am working on lining up internships to hopefully guide me towards something specific. Grades wise, would you think I’m competitive enough to get into a pre-med program or general LSA at UM?
On app fee waivers: I do not meet the criteria for them according to my guidance counselor. </p>
<p>Again, sorry for the lengthy reply but thank you for your assistance :)</p>
