Which school if I can't get into Stanford?

Hi Everyone,
Just wanted to get some input. I’m still waiting for word from Stanford but in the meantime I have been accepted into the University of Alabama and they will give me about $30,000/yr. I read that OOS will cost about $42,000. I would like to study medicine, economics or psychology. What are your thoughts on attending UofAlabama for $12,000/yr?
