[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, the UK has a better system that will save you/your daughter a lot of money: In the UK you start directly in medical school, rather than getting a BA in something else first like in the US. It's still about 5 years total, but then you start foundation training and actually get paid while you do it, and then specialist training, which is also paid. Source: my husband is a UK-trained doctor, and my son is a veterinarian who also went to the UK for university/training (vet school system in UK vs US is similar to med school). [/quote] Oh, and I forgot to add that the 5 years of uni you have to pay for in the UK as part of her medical training cost significantly less than a uni in the US. So pay much less for the initial 5 years, then she actually starts getting paid for the next phases of her medical training, rather than having to pay/take out loans. You could spend what you have saved now to get her through in the UK. [/quote]
