Here’s a new idea – tuition-free med school …. According to the Wall Street Journal, a newly minted doctors owe nearly $140,000 on average in student loans.
So, to help alleviate some of the financial burden that doctors feel out of med school, the Cleveland Clinic Lerner College of Medicine of Case Western University will announce today that beginning in July, all incoming students will be awarded full scholarships to cover their estimated $43,500 tuition.
Other schools are allegedly following suit including the University of Florida and Yale University and some others are boosting financial aid.
