I am a CA resident. I am Considering TTU Honors college only because I got a significant merit scholarship that I needed. I also have admission into UC Davis and San Diego, but no merit scholarship obviously.
If I study in TX at TTU Honors college, I will still be considered non-Resident status for Texas,… which means when I eventually apply for CA Medical schools, I may be considered as a Resident-Status for CA. - Do you agree with this one, I am not sure?
From your reply and the stats you shared, it seems (correct me if I am wrong)
- even CA instate PreMeds have a less chance to matriculate from CA medical school
- Texas PreMeds might have much better chance of matriculating in Texas Med Schools but much worse chance to matriculate outside of Texas.
Texas state law requires that no more than 10% of the entering classes of medical and dental schools can be made up of non-Texas residents.
Is there any similar law in CA requiring priority for CA in-state students? It seems like there is no priority but some preference for In state in some of the UCs.
The question still remains: Does it make sense to go to TTU Premed with significant aid as opposed to UC Davis/SD?… in the big schema of the things?? Sorry, but I am pretty confused about this.
Any guidance here is much appreciated. Thank you.
