And are you guys putting your parental information on the FAFSA? I brought up filling out the FAFSA this morning to my mom and she was like, “this person’s daughter said that the financial aide people give scholarship opportunities at medical school interviews. Why haven’t you been asking about those?” I’m like hereeeee we go againnnnn with the comparisons, lmao. My financial aide talk at schools have only consisted of a 15-30 minute speech and getting a sheet of paper that says fill out FAFSA.
Stressss...lol. Yeah, tbh I don't know much about scholarships for med school. They seem to be pretty sparse.
Med school scholarships exist and can be merit or needs-based. Make sure to ask the school you've gotten accepted to about this. Most need-based ones rely on FAFSA so fill that out ASAP (that may be why you haven't heard anything).
To the parents, please let them understand as soon as possible because it becomes shocking how much debt can accrue in med school.
Nigerians are low-key allergic to debt, lol. Definitely hunt down scholarships (many are open around this time). I'll try to look at the lists I have and may post this later. Someone PLEASE remind me, lol.
