HEELP! What are my chances of getting into Yale or other ivy leagues?Will I also be eligible for scholarships?
Did you know that there are better universities in neuroscience at a fraction of the price of the Ivy League schools? You should be looking at all of the best schools in your field of study, not just the most expensive one. An example would be UC San Diego, or UCLA, both of which are ranked higher than most Ivy League schools in Biological Sciences, both of which have a major research hospital, and you could qualify for in-state tuition a number of ways. If you establish California residency by moving to an inexpensive area with a community college that has a good biomed/premed program, then you will save a huge amount of money for the first two years and it won't make a bit of difference to your degree, since you'll mostly be doing general ed cles anyways. This will save about $30,000 dollars or more. UCSD also has a guaranteed transfer program for California Community College students that follow a specific program that meets their requirements. Flights only take about an hour each way and $100 roundtrip from Arizona, with advance booking.
