The other thing to consider is that medical school is expensive.

Therefore, it makes sense for the student to avoid debt and save money to reduce total debt after medical school.

Also, it would be a bad idea for the parents to take on debt for the student’s college, especially since the student going on to medical school will not be able to help the parents to pay off that debt until a decade or more after graduating with a bachelor’s degree (4 years medical school, 4 years of residency, ?? years of paying off the student’s own medical school debt).
