Derek’s Answer
Best way to pay for college is either with cash that you are saving from working or with tuition reimbursement from other companies. College is expensive. No way around that, unfortunately. Bigger companies often have tuition reimbursement to help with it and can be flexible in hours.
That said, more often than not, they will help fund the undergraduate. Once you get into medical school, you may need to look at some grants/financial aid offered for the school you are going to. I always warn about taking loans out, as small loans can turn into big loans real quick. It is so easy to get well into debt during college and come out with more than you had hoped, so if loans are necessary for you, take the bare minimum and work during your time in school to cover the rest.
Best of luck!
