Chance me please/ add to my college list [NY resident, 4.0 UW, 1520 SAT, Rank #1, for premed related major, no parent contribution]

The Binghamton/Upstate BS/MD accepts 5 or fewer students per year.

Additionally, the program gives strong preference to students who:

  • are NYS residents from Central/Upstate NY
  • from a rural or medically underserved community
  • are a first generation college student or are from a low SES family

Not sure the OP qualifies on any of those counts.

University of New Mexico offers a full ride for NMF students. Scholarship covers tuition, fees. housing and meals for 4 years. Student need only maintain a 3.3 GPA to keep the award.

Additionally UNM School of Medicine now considers all UNM graduates on the same footing as state residents w/r/t medical school admission. (UNM SOM does not accept OOS applicants.) UNMSOM is among the least expensive medical school in the US. In-state tuition is just $15,788/year. That’s huge bargain! SUNY med schools have tuition that is 3x higher than UNM’s.
