The following covers the some of the required costs you can expect to encounter:
1) Costs of Applying to Medical School involve utilizing the American Medical College Application Service (AMCAS) to process applications. This service is extremely helpful and simple. You submit your information and application materials to them, and in return, they will send these applications to the Medical Schools that you specify. Considering the time and energy it takes to send applications to different medical schools, the costs are arguably reasonable. $160 for the first school and $30 for each additional school.
2) Medical School Costs vary from school to school, also considering different regions, and whether or not they are public or private. However, based on certain recent statistical reviews, state Medical School costs range from $24,000 – $44,000 a year for state residents and about $44,000 for out-of-state residents. At a private Medical School, tuition and fees typically run at about $41,000 (state residents) to $43,000 (out-of-state residents). The costs significantly add up. In 2008, the median debt was about $150,000 per Medical School student.
3) External Medical School Costs include room and board, books and supplies, etc. Room and board ranges too dramatically for accurate estimates to be presented, as they differ between the Medical Schools. Books and supplies costs are presently between $1,000 to $3,000 a year. In addition, health insurance throughout Medical School costs between $1,300 to $2,000.
As it is evident from the aforementioned information, Medical School costs can sometimes be more daunting than the Medical School course load itself. As an advisable solution, newly accepted students should consult their Medical School financial aid officer to plan out a financial plan specific to the student’s situation.
