Which state has the lowest cost for college tuition for out-of-state students?

I am an 18 year old male currently living in Florida. I am looking for the best deal on college tuition. I am willing to pay more in order to recieve a better education, but there is a cap of what I am willing to pay. Can anyone shed some light on my situation.

Don’t be afraid of out-of-state tuition because after financial aid has been accounted for, you’d be amazed at how much the price can be reduced.

My financial aid package at my top choice college brought the tuition from almost $41,000 (room and board included) down to only about $13,000 and all I did was file the FAFSA. So don’t be afraid of the sticker price you see at first (because as long as you fill out the FAFSA, it’ll become a good price that’s manageable).

What college courses do I need to become a psychiatrist?

Fall 09 im going to get my GED and I want to pusue becoming a psychiatrist. But im confused about what bachelor’s degree I need. Should I get a bachelor’s degree in psychology? And also should I take college credit courses before going for my bachelor’s degree, such as: (since I did not finish high school)

pre-calculus
anatomy and physiology
psychology
biology
chemistry

Or is that not really needed?

Any answers would help, thanks.

A psychiatrist is a physician (MD), you will need to get into medical school (pre-med in college). With a GED, you had better have a very high GPA in college. Entrance to medical school is highly competitive.

A psychologist needs a PhD, and to get into a good program, you will also need to be an exceptional student. Although there are PhD programs of lesser quality, but you will still have to pass state license exams to practice.

How much of a difference will an AP class senior year make in college admissions?

im not looking to get into any selective college. i live near clevleand, and im thinking like akron, cincinatti, or kent state. cumulative gpa is like 2.6 right now, (3.4 junior year). Im in one AP class this year, and one or 2 next year. I’ll proabaly get pretty good SAT and ACT scores(like 26 ACT and 1220 SAT reading/math). how much of a difference will it make in colleges admissions if i take 1 compered to 2 AP classes next year?
just out of curiosity, what aobut more selective colleges? would i even have a chance at like ohio state

It seriously will not make a lot of difference. From researching myself various colleges last year, colleges really look at the grades from AP classes rather than AP score or number of AP’s. Of course, the more the better, but during Senior Year it will not make a lot of difference. As long as you have the same or more you will be fine that is all they look for is "the quality of the senior program," which includes taking one more AP than last time. I am not entirely sure about Ohio State right now, but you have a big chance as long as you keep up your GPA because that is really the determining factor in your college, especially large states schools such as Ohio. Additionally, taking more AP classes prepares you the most for college lever material–no matter which college you attend.

Did Huckabee actually offer to give illegals free college tuition?

During the Republican debate,it was mentioned that Huckabee sponsored a law that would of gave illegal aliens free college tuition (paid by taxpayers)and he voted to ban tuition aid to our own veterans!…..This has to be the worst candidate if true.

Yes and people with views like him are destroying this country. They will keep coming having babies and we will continue to pay for health care and welfare and then tuition if he gets his way. Your right he is one of the worst candidates.

Are there any college scholarships for people with scoliosis?

I would like to find a college scholarship for people with scoliosis.
I don’t care what the stipulations are:
I’ll need it to be able to apply to ATLEAST Tennessee schools & women/teens.

The scholarship can be for minor/severe curves.

It doesn’t too much matter.- just if someone finds a scholarship for anything to do with scoliosis then give me the link/name/and or any details about it that you can.
THANKS!

If you have a disability your state vocational rehabilitation department may be able to sponsor your college education, they will look at…
1. Do you have a disability, documented by a physician
2. Does it create a impediment to your employment
3. Do you have the aptitude to complete college courses? (IQ)
4. Does your vocational goal require college? (Ex. If accountant need degree)

If you can fit that criteria go apply for services, remember it’s a work program that pay for you to go to school because it ‘s going to help you get a job. Goof Luck:)
