But if she is even remotely considering any other field, Stanford is much more recognized. Especially financial services, consulting, law.

I would remove law from this list. For Law the reputation of the Law School matters, not the reputation of undergrad. With top grades and top LSAT score you can get into a top Law School from any reputable undergrad. For financial services and consulting, I agree tht the prestige of undergrad matters.

I will add my voice to the chorus of people saying if she is seriously considering medicine Alabama is the better choice. The money saved from UG tuition will make med school so much more manageable.
