My boyfriend lives in ny like me, but he is originally from the mid-west. He has always said he wanted to return to his home state but he has been saying it for years and I didn't think he would ever follow through. He is seriously considering it now. I love him so much, and I would move away with him but I have two problems. One is cultural - my family is from Haiti, and it is preferable for Haitian families to generally stay close together to provide a support system for eachother which I do have now and couldn't imagine living without. The other is professional. I am an undergraduate preparing for a career in medicine. I am only almost done with undergrad and I might have to do some course work after I graduate before entering medical school(depending if I get accepted of not).I go to one of the best universities in the US for science (Stony Brook, birth place of the MRI machine) and I do not want to give up the oppurtunity to continue in the school if I have the oppurtunity. HELP!!

Stay in school, and if family is important, than stay close to them. Finishing school will greatly impact your entire future, and the only contstant people in your life are your family members.
If you move, you'll resent it.

You can stay in touch with your famiy via phone or internet. And just because we're not on the east coast doesn't mean we don't have some great schools, including pre-med and medical schools.
As far as good universities for science, the University of Colorado was the birthplace of the Hubble telescope, and researchers at the University of Utah created cold fusion.
Take a chance, move with him.

FINISH SCHOOL. You may think you will go back if you leave, but that is much harder than you think. If you go with him, then he will have a significant amount of control over your life. If you stay in school and get your degree then you are in charge of what you do with your life.
