[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP,

What is your home state?  Usually, merit aid at out of state publics cannot bring the cost down lower than your IN-STATE options.  Obviously, when you start with OOS tuition, and then subtract merit aid... you are still looking at something as high or higher than In State Tuition/R&B.

That said, Alabama is one that is known for being GENEROUS for OOS students -- they have to import smart people in AL, I guess!

If you are in VA, you will get a pretty good deal at UMW.  See the defined merit for grades/SATs:  https://www.umw.edu/admissions/in-state-merit-scholarship/

The good thing about being pre-med at a smaller school is that you will have lots of opportunities to get to know the professors, and they to know you.  And that's going to help with writing very solid recommendations for med school.[/quote]

I'm the UMN scholarship poster. Virginia is our place of residence. Likely engineering major. After scholarship, COA to UMN would be $30 v $45 for UVA, $34 for Tech or $37 for WM.[/quote]

Don’t major in engineering if you’re doing premed. [/quote]
