do you pay 40,000 a year for universities or for the whole 4 yr thing?

Question

i really want to go to medical school :/

Answer 1

It's per a year. (Plus additional fees -If you live on-campus, food plans, books, activity fees, computer fees, etc.) They charge you a lot!

Answer 2

4 year, try 8 year! They give you a break in Internship, they don't charge for that year!

Then in Residency they give you incentive pay, around $25K.

The most beautiful thing of all is in the last 2 years of Medical School not only do you pay $40K+ a year, but they work your rear end off, sometimes 100 - 120 hours at a stretch.

They make you miss (on purpose) LAbor Day weekend, Easter Weekend, Christmas Weekend, Memorial Day weekend.

Your roomates are all our getting drunk and BBQ all weekend long and you are in Greens sleeping in spare beds hoping some nurse won't come along and shake you into reality to look at a patient, even though she can do more than you can and knows more, becuase YOU are the student Doctor and she's just a nurse working there for 20 years. (If you don't think SHE gets a kick out of passing the buck, going back to the nurses lounge for a cup of coffee and bragging about how she woke the Medical School student to handle a problem, you are mistaken! She gets $45K in pay and you're paying $40K to be there, but she only has a BS in Nursing and you have above a MS in Bio Chemistry and Biology)

How's that for chaunnas in the world of University Life!

Answer 3

I could never afford to pay 40k a year for school but many of the private schools have tuition alone that is higher than that. i went to a state university but that does not necessarily mean that the education was poor. we don't have high funding but i was able to attend conferences, take technical electives some private schools don't even offer, and publish in a professional journal before i graduated.

when you are picking a college or university it is very important to look at the program and what you want to do with your degree. then you need to see how much debt you are willing to get into (or how many scholarship essays you are willing to write). look at job statistics (i.e. where grads were placed and at what pay amount, etc.) and what they have on campus. you are paying to be educated and college is a very large investment. so i guess, in a long winded statement, i paid 40k for the experience but it does depend on the situation for each person.

Answer 4

It depends on the university. At many public universities, it would by $40,000 for the whole thing. At a lot of private universities it is $40,000 (or more) per year.

Answer 5

A year. Any price you see advertised in brochures and websites is on a per year basis.

Don't worry about the price too much though. Higher priced private universities actually give better financial aid so it all evens out

Answer 6

That's per year at a decent school. See NYU for an example.

Answer 7

A year - if you're lucky...
