LSU Med School is about 15k a year. Add on other expenses, and no way is it over 95-100k for four years.


You want to try that again?

From LSU Med School Page --

quote:

Scholarships and Financial Aid
YEARLY STUDENT EXPENSES

Tuition cost: $14,240*

Non-resident tuition: $31,027*

Books and Supplies: $2,819

Computer: $2,073

Other Fees $1,100

Off-campus living expenses: $17,739**

Health Insurance: $1,751


So, in-state students are looking at about $38K per year (+$2K for computer first year). Over four years, that $154K.

And, although I realize very few out-of-state students get into LSU, you can add another $68K for out-of-state, making that $222K for out of state.

So, to go to a public Med School will cost $154K-222K, depending upon whether you're lucky/smart enough to get into your state school.

Where the hell are you living?? You can find a nice place in LV for 600/mo.

My SO is in med school, and she said it should set her back about 100k when it's all said and done. Maybe she's lying..
