[quote=Anonymous]The only way we are affording it is intentionally choosing undergrad that gave the most scholarships, work study, working as RA to get reduced housing, etc to make amount due as low as possible. This allowed 529 to cover housing and 1/3 of med school tuition. The other 2/3 borrowed from family, tax free gift if paid directly. If family flakes out, then can take stafford loans. It won’t reach cap because it’s only 2/3. But it’s really close to cap. Other option is to go into family medicine or peds or internal medicine, there are several schools that give free or reduced tuition if you agree to serve rural population for a number of years.
