I understand, and I understand wanting to go to college OOS. BUT Pitt is outstanding for premed majors…you can certainly achieve all of your goals from there. Same is true of PSU, but for premeds Pitt>PSU.

Regarding the debt, let’s work some numbers. If your parents pay $30K per year and you choose either of the $48K options your total undergrad debt will be $72K. You can only take out $27K in Federal student loans, the remaining $45K will be on your parents. Then, when it comes time to go to med school, you will likely be borrowing another $200K-$300K, that’s why coming out of undergrad debt free is important.

Make your choice between Pitt and PSU and don’t look back! Good luck.
