I am currently a 2nd year med student, and have always been interested in going to FM in the future. By the time all is said and done, I will probably have around 250-260K in debt. I just looked at finaid.org which told me that in order to pay back that debt in 10 yrs, I would need a salary of $359,000 and in order to pay it back over 30 years, would need $209,000 not to mention you end up paying so much more interest over time! HPSA loan repayment would not be an option for me, as my husband needs to be in a relatively populated area for his career, and the military is just not my thing. My husband will also pull in a salary, but I'm not sure that collectively we could make it to $359!
Does this mean that I have to shut the door on FP? What else do people do?
