    well, im planning on transferring to Texas a&m commerce university so that i can do my 6 year plan with them and get transferred after 2 years to

    IAU medical school in St. Lucia. ( an island right next to Venezuela and Brazil and under Puerto Rico and Cuba)... without taking the MCAT... ;D and being able to practice right after graduation on the states :D

    well, the only issue is that when i transfer, i wont be able to get financial aid because ill be out of state. ( paying out of state tuition)...

    so, i will need loans... loans.. and more loans.... it hurts just to think about it.

    so my question is...


    who,what, when, where, and why?::) plus some other tips that will help me get less loans if possible.

    responses will be greatly appreciated. :D

    I wish I could be of help.

    I am looking to go to Australia for college. Its around$32 thousand use each year for international students. I was able to find Australian Education Connection, which is an organization based in the states, for which I could go to the same school for$20 thousand per year.

    Basically I am saying to look around for something like this...I don't know if there are sponsors that will do that for your field of interest, but it surely couldn't hurt to look.

    1) Forget about your hopes and dreams because the world is coming to an end in 2012 anyway.
    2) Like your really going to be worried about school when your in IAU and not checking out the girls.


    In all seriousness, depending on your ethnicity, the government will give you money to go to school. I would look in to work study programs as well. Fill out your FAFSA (spelling) forms to get student loans from the government.

    At WVU, they offer what is called promise scholarship. If you are an in state resident you go to school for free as long as you work in the state of WV for 5 years after graduating. However, if your state school doesn't offer the program you wish to enroll in, you are eligible to receive the promise scholarship.

    I would look in to those things and see if A&M has anything like that. You could also suddenly be amazing at foozeball and try to get a full ride :).

    lol FYI.. the Mayan calendar is off by 50 years :D so we all have 50 more to live. ( scientifically proven).

    and to my understanding you only get money if you are in state resident? which i wont be when i go to texas. or is there more to that?

    and thanks, ill see if there is any programs like that.. like a friend once said.. if there is a will, there is a way :p ( you know who you are).;D

    keep the reposes coming :p i still need info on the loan route.

    I have many friends whom are out of state and get financial aide through WVU and their home states FAFSA. You may be looking at something different or may be misreading something.

    Yeah LSU does the same thing, if you have a B average and are a Lousiana resident then you get TOPS and go to LSU for free..But i was lucky to get a scholarship for golf..
