Hello all!

I just got my final acceptance today from Case Western and I’m having a hard time deciding where to go.

The following list is the order from lowest to highest overall cost.

Florida International University - Tuition, Books, & Fees Covered (French)
University of Georgia - Tuition & Fees Covered (Romance Languages)
Georgia Tech (Summer Admit) - Tuition Covered (Applied Languages & Intercultural Studies)
Case Western - $32,500 Scholarship (French & Francophone Studies)
Tulane - $30,000 Scholarship (French)
Miami - $20,000 Scholarship (French)
Emory - Unknown, Waiting for letter on March 20th. (Latin America & Caribbean Studies)

I want to do pre-med and I’m dead set on becoming a doctor. My mom died from pancreatic cancer last year and I’ve never thought about being a doctor until that point. I can’t see myself doing anything else at this point. I will most likely not be majoring in a science, rather in language/cultural studies.

Anyone have any recommendations? I’ve toured all the schools except Case Western which they are paying for my flight to visit April 11th. I think FIU would be the smartest choice due to cost and most of my family lives in Miami, but I don’t know if it’s worth going to a lower ranked school.

I placed a deposit on GT as I wanted to secure a good time ticket for choosing dorms, but I’m not 100% confident in going there with all the bad “pre-med” vibes over there.

Thank you.
