<p>^I agree with fireandrain</p>
<p>Additionally, even working for a year won’t solve this problem - the excess income will be taken into account and she will receive less financial aid the following year (unless she is already full pay). Even so, she can’t make enough in a year to make a substantial dent in Brown tuition.</p>
<p>There is simply not a way to pay for Brown that is reasonable. </p>

<p>This is worrisome. This is exactly how people get themselves into hundreds of thousands of dollars of debt. Med school will likely put her 200k in debt, if you add another 200k from Brown she’s looking at $2,000/month payments for the next 25 years. Think about how much money that is. It’s not worth it for four years of undergrad when the safety will get her to the same place. Med school admissions are GPA and MCAT centered - if she does really well she can get into ANY med school.</p>
