[quote=Anonymous]You are kind of on your own for grad school (as far as the school goes, unless you get merit...which is quite rare for the specialties you mentioned). You can take out loans through the government. Or explore payback programs (for physicians) which require a commitment to work in an area that needs physicians. Not sure if there is any equivalent for lawyers. I got a PhD in public health (which unlike the "hard sciences" often does not provide funding). My merit resulted in most of the tuition being covered, but often the living expenses outpace any small stipend you might get. So people work on the side and/or take out loans. For my field, I was eventually able to secure a predoctoral fellowship from the NIH...but again, it was meager. [/quote]
