You may think I was patronizing you, but I was trying to do a reality check so you’d understand how Cornell will look at this whole thing. Sure, ask them…but understand there’s next to zero chance they’d give more aid.

want to go into global medicine, and being in New York would open the door to far more international connections than being at UT <<<<

This is so not true. And who knows where you’d get into med school (could be anywhere in the US)…and who knows where you’d do your residency/fellowship…which would all be prior to any sort of Global Medicine practice.
You can go to any good undergrad in the country…UT is totally fine…excellent in fact.
Please don’t assume that if you went to Cornell that you’d get into its med school or really any NE med school.
As for Plus Loans…your parents can borrow the whole kit and caboodle…but will they? please ask them.
You’d still have $250-300k of med school costs to borrow.
