Careers: Medical & Psychiatry - College?


Expert: Janet Carter - 6/7/2009

Question
I'm 13 at the time and I make straight A's,only for B's this year,I'm getting ready to go to high school and I am african american,Indian runs in my family but I am not Indian.But I want to go to medical school and I am low income.My mom doesn't work,not because she can't but she just chooses not to.My dad is old even though he has a lot of money,a lot,I just don't want to depend on him.I signed up for this program that helps pay for medical school but I don't want to depend on it fully.So how do I pay for college or medical school?Does this mean that I can't go to college or something?
By the way,I want to be a psychiatrist.

Answer
There are student loan programs AND scholarships that will help pay for college (including medical school).  At your high school there should be a school counselor who can give you this information.  Ask him or her.  Of course you can go to college.  Good luck.
