@gamom2023 and @mountainmomof3, if you want a school ranked higher than Bama by US News that pays Total Cost of Attendance as well as tuition for one year of grad school, you should look at USF in Tampa. (USF is ranked #124 and Bama is #129). You can still apply thru June 1. USF’s medical school, which is ranked just a few notches back from UF and Miami, is getting a new and exciting campus in downtown Tampa.
I’m still partial to UF, which was my son’s choice. But my daughter, a HS junior, should qualify for NMF, so I’m starting this whole process over again. Sure would be nice if UF added a year of grad school tuition too!
