Tough choice, which SUNY to pick?

also if you can get into a top tier school like you claim you can, then go there. trust me on that one also (my aunt and uncle are on the adcoms of 2 top med schools who have confirmed with me that your undergrad school DOES matter for admissions).

<p>There’s a caveat to this, however – the student’s financial situation. Is the student going to borrow and incur debt to finance their undergraduate education? A graduate medical education may very well cost $200,000 to $300,000 and I would counsel any student to carefully consider how far in undergraduate debt he or she is willing to go into before they even get to that point.</p>

<p>The name of the undergraduate school is important but it’s not everything. If you can get into a top school without breaking the bank, great. A student who attends one of the top SUNY schools and works hard while they’re there, gets involved and graduates near the top of their class is also going to do well.</p>
