Go to college.   Go in as an officer.  You can get a scholarship or go to an academy and the military will still pay for your college, plus you get four years to train before you go in and you get more money when you do.  You may still be elligible for the GI Bill benifits when you get out so the military can pay for your grad school.

Most universities, whether public or private do receive federal monies directly or indirectly. For example, many American college students receive grants from the federal government which is used to pay their tuition at state-sponsored or private colleges and universities. The federal government also guarantees many student loans. \n\nStudents at the service academies pretty much get all their expenses paid by the federal government in exchange for an individual's committment to several years of military service. The graduates generally receive commissions as officers. Admission to these academies is very competitive, and admission may require the recommendation of a US Congressman or Senator.\n\nThese include:\n\nUS Military Academy (West Point, New York)\nUS Naval Academy (Annapolis, Maryland)\nUS Air Force Academy (Colorado Springs, Colorado)\nUS Coast Guard Academy (New London, Connecticut)

You are thinking of BS-MD programs. No AMERICAN school puts a high schooler straight into medical school (however, this is the practice in many parts of Asia).\n\nThese compressed programs start with an accelerated bachelor's degree, then you take the MCAT and are admitted to the med program. Most programs are 7 years, but UMKC has a 6 year program.\n\nUC Riverside and Univ. of Southern California also offer similar programs.\n\nMy best friend did the UCR program and dropped out in 2 quarters. They start with 200 students. Only 8 make it to the UCLA at the end. This is because you will be taking a lot of hard classes at once, and you will be fighting to keep your grades up as well as stay sane.

Montgomery GI Bill:  $100/month for 12 months gets you $20,000 or MORE for college tuition.\n\nMedical and dental beneifts at no cost to you.  Dependants pay a small fee for dental, but there is no montly fee for Medical.\n\nBasic allowance for housing:  if you choose not tolive in the Barracks or ont he ship, you will receive money to help pay for the rent.\n\nBasic Allowance for Substinence:  When authorized, money for groceries.\n\nTop notch training.\n\n30 days paid vacation each year.. starting from the first year, earned monthly.\n\nThere are other bennies and extra pays, but they vary greatly from job to job.

FIRST, you have to be admitted as a student in the School of Medicine.\nTHEN you can apply for a SCHOLARSHIP or STUDY GRANT from a Financial Aid Organization that the school recognizes.\nGOOD LUCK!

You need to find out EXACTLY what pre-requisits you need for medical school.  If your college cannot tell you this...contact the medical school(s) you plan to apply to.\n\nGood luck...it's a long hard road.  College and medical school are the easy part.  It's internship, residency, and life that are the buttocks kickers.

The first thing I would do is try to get social security to pay for more of your medical bills. You may need a lawyer to get this but maybe not. Check their web site to see what they say about coverage through Medicare.\nContact your local social services through the county of your residence and see if they have a medicade program where they can offset some of your medical bills. These services that they provide are always qualified by expenses that you pay not just on income. \n\nSecondly, if all else fails you can get student loans through financial institutions that do college loans just for students like Federal Perkins Loans or Subsidized Stafford loans. They can be contacted and negotiated right through the college. The federal and subsidized ones are much easier to get and virtually undeniably cheaper to pay off. \n\nThere are other commercial lenders like "Goal Financial, LLC undergraduate division" tel #1-800-219-8808 or "Student Loan Express (for parents to get the loan regardless of income) tel #1-866-823-5287.\n\nI have just gone through this myself and found that when I spoke with the admissions people at the colleges, they were very helpful and started becoming very creative.\n(no I don't work for these people nor am I affiliated in any way - just trying to give specifics, I don't even know how well these people work. I'm just trying to do my best for you here)\n\nLastly and least attractive is a second mortgage on your residence of you own your own home. But interest rates on second mortgages are dangerous especially in your situation. \n\nBTW. I agree with the other post that a 2 year community college may be the way to go to start. Your son can always transfer later and get his 4 year degree from a great college after without having to pay or owe through the nose for the first two years.\n\nBest of luck to you and your son.

You can go into as much debt as you want to.  Seriously, if you barge straight through at expensive schools, you'll be paying off your  debts just about the time your kids hit college.\n\nMy advice is this:\n\nUndergraduate:  Find a subject you love, and major in that.  You will still need to take all the pre-med courses (anatomy/physiology, chemistry, organic chem, physics, and I'd recommend biochem and genetics as well).  I have friends who are great doctors, and majored in engineering, art, math and other non-medical things.  Get good grades.  You are better off getting good grades at an average school than mediocre grades at a tough school.  You'll get out of college what you put into it.  If you work part time, get grants or scholarships, and pick a school that doesn't cost too much, you don't have to have a huge debt load.\n\nMCAT:  Study like hell.  Learn what needs to be learned for the MCAT and kick butt on that test.\n\nMed School:  If you want to reduce your debt, consider the military (they'll pay your way through med school for 8 years of service) or other government programs - there are some that pay your debt if you work in underserved areas, or in public health jobs.  You'll have to research that, and you have at least 4 years to do so.\n\nAfter medical school, you are qualified to do nothing.  You have to do a residency.  You get paid as a resident, but not much.  The hours are long, but it's better now than it used to be.  Residency is a minimum of 3 years, and can go 7 or more, depending on what you want to do.  YOU HAVE TO START PAYING BACK YOUR LOANS AS A RESIDENT, even if you're not making much.  Keep that in mind as you accumulate debt.\n\nHope that helps.

I live in Malta and this is a tough one for you.  The University of Malta does participate in student exchange programs with the US - and they speak English -  see what courses are on offer and check if the US medical school you want to go to will accept any courses from U/M - http://www.um.edu.mt/intoff/internationaloffrole.html\n2nd semester starts in February not January and runs until June -\nMalta is expensive - 1 MTL = 3 USD - McD meal = 3 mtl or 9 USD [an example] - life here is a bit expensive - Rent - a flat of medium quality is about 400 to 600 dollars a month + utilities+cable+phone+internet and 6 months is considered a "short let" so it might be more - the university offers housing but i dont know if it is coed - check the link i gave you - tuition- junior college course is 1500 mtl x 3 for US dollars per year - email the school and find out if the course is offered for 1/2 year studies - as Malta is a "catholic" country cohabitation is .... but as divorce is not legal here, many people are seperated & alot of people "cohabitate" so it will depend on who you meet, where you live, etc... \ncultural attitude towards women? different from the US - generally okay - it would be best to stay in the "touristy" part of the island as here is where pretty much everone speaks english - go to the link and check out the university info first - then go to http://www.searchmalta.com/ to get more information and also go to http://www.di-ve.com/dive/portal/portal.jhtml?id=610&pid=13 - http://www.exclusive.com.mt/index2.jsp - i hope some of this helps, do your research and email me if you want - :)

E-5 is ok pay. Have you been in the service awhile? Civilian pay is always going to be much better. But you have to balance the fact that you don't have any major bills in the service either. Do you have GI Bill? I went back to school after 6 years in the service. Not only do you get full financial aid (because you probably won't be rich - but maybe you are?), but the GI Bill kicks in $1000+ per month for a full time student. That is your money, you spend it as you like. Then you could get a job doing whatever you wanted.\n\nFYI: here in Utah Union Pacific was hiring RR people just to run transfers and do yard work, and they were starting in the $40K's.\n\nAnyways, hope this is helpful, and good luck to you!

Four years of medical school, usually followed by one year of internship, followed by four years of residency training.  Most do either a one or two year fellowship to subspecialize.  Total time, including college, is usually about thirteen to fifteen years years.  Monetary expense is four years of college and four years of medical school.  At current prices, this will easily cost you $200,000 to $300,000.  Put it this way.....you spend half your young adult life in school and in training and when you get out you start your career with a hefty debt that is comparable to a home mortgage....unless you have family money that can finance your education without going into debt.
