Wait…you’re an NMF? Did you apply to any schools that will give you a free ride (or nearly a free ride)??? If not, why not???

If you’re going to be a doctor, then you don’t need to go to a tier one school and go into debt. You can go to a mid-tier, get good grades, do well on your MCATs and get accepted to med school.

where all did you apply? If you didn’t apply to a school that will give you a free ride, there may still be some that will offer one to you. PM me.

Also, your dad doesn’t know this, but you can “max out” with Stafford loans for med school if you borrow for undergrad. The max you can borrow for combined undergrad and med school for Stafford is $224,000. That $224,000 is what you’ll need for med school. That doesn’t leave much for undergrad.
