<p>^ you are forgetting that I will be getting financial aid. Maybe i might get full coverage at Yale…but if I get into a combined program then im willing to take out 5K loans etc…</p>
<p>Pizzagirl: my goal is not to become an everyday doctor. I believe that going to a certain school does not really matter…it is all up to the person. I mean look at Dr. Paul Farmer (even though he graduated from Harvard Medical School, I think he would have done just as much if he would have gone to another medical school)…</p>
<p>Now back to my question…any more advice will be helpful. I have to get a list ready soon.</p>
<p>Isn’t Mayo free? I heard that it is free as all Med. Students are on full tuition schalraship. it is impossible to get into though, they accept something like 1% of applicants. Also Case gives a lot of scholarships, I do not know much about others.</p>
<p>I was already taking into account financial aid that you would likely receive. Esp. with the way the economy is right now, the amount of grant/scholarship aid would not be as high as you think it would be (even with your economic status). I’m willing to put money that medical schools like Yale would more likely to give you more financial aid (esp. with merit scholarships) than AMC. Check the <a href=“http://www.mdapplicants.com%5B/url%5D”>www.mdapplicants.com</a> website to see what financial aid packages people have gotten, esp. to economically disadvantaged students. Also check with AMC to see likely how your financial aid package would look like beforehand.</p>
<p>Paul Farmer got an MD/PhD - undergrad at Duke, MD from Harvard and PhD in Medical Anthropology at Harvard, so it’s only fitting that he would want to pursue international medicine. He is in fact an Infectious Disease specialist - as he has done an infectious disease fellowship after completing a 3 year Internal Medicine residency both at Brigham and Women’s Hospital, a Harvard teaching hospital, in Boston. He is hardly an everyday doctor.</p>
<p>MiamiDAP - according to this site: [Mayo</a> Medical School](<a href=“ICD-10-GM 2022”>ICD-10-GM 2022), “every medical student at the school receives financial assistance from the Mayo Foundation, with several students each year receiving full tuition scholarships,” so no, not everyone receives a full tuition scholarship. </p>
<p>paki786,
I would not say that University of Cincinnati duel program and U of Toledo have as high preference for Ohio residence as NEOUCOM where it is officially written in NEOUCOM charter. However, both Cinci and Toledo have very few spots (10 or less). Also, Toledo used to have 2 separate combined programs in 2 different UG Departments. Contact them both.</p>
<p>I can’t seem to find a section on the SLU application (from Common App.) where I indicate that I want to apply for the accelerated medical program.</p>
<p>regarding the SLU program, you need to have your SLU undergraduate application and the application for the program in by December 1 (or earlier). You need to have your regular SLU application complete before you submit the Medical Scholars application.</p>
<p>Jason 110, I don’t think your right. I submitted my Med Scholars Application in Late July(by accident)…
I have yet to submit my common app, or SLU supplement yet.</p>
